Keto Pigs In A Blanket Recipe

This keto pigs in a blanket recipe is popular comfort food that kids love! It’s naturally gluten-free, made with almond flour.

I love finding a recipe that I can enjoy with my kids. Even before I went on the keto diet, I used to love eating pigs in a blanket. In fact, I have childhood memories of eating these fun lunch treats. Now that I’m taking charge of my health, I created a low carb healthier version – and you will love it too!

Keto Pigs In A Blanket With Almond Flour 

This recipe tastes just like the original. It still wraps mini sausages up in a flaky crust. The only difference is that instead of a crust made with gluten or wheat flour, I used almond flour and cheese. It’s all the flavor without all the carbs. 

If you want to take these pigs in a blanket to the next level, add some everything bagel seasoning on top before you bake them. You won’t believe how delicious this is. 

Another topping idea – sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on top.

This is a kid-friendly appetizer, so if you have lots of small children that are going to be at the dinner, make a double batch. 

In fact, this recipe makes a fantastic keto holiday appetizer too. Set these little bite-sized treats out during the party and people will grab them and snack on them. I love making them for all sorts of parties – football games, birthday parties, even movie nights. They even make the perfect quick lunch. 

How To Prep Ahead Of Time

These little pigs in a blanket are the perfect things to cook ahead of time and store in the freezer. If you flash freeze them and keep them in a sealed freezer-safe bag, they will last about 3 months in the freezer. 

Here’s how to freeze them so they don’t become a huge frozen ball. 

1. Bake them by following the recipe card. 
2. Let them cool completely. 
3. Place them in as single layer on a baking sheet. 
4. Put the baking sheet in the freezer. 
5. Freeze them for about an hour or until they are completely frozen. 
6. Put all of the pigs in a blanket in a freezer-safe sealed bag. 

When you are ready to heat them back up, you can either put them back in the oven or let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
