Why you'll love it

• Keto/very low carb: just canned chicken + eggs.
• Texture = somewhere between an omelet and a chicken nugget-not bread-y, but sturdy and yummy.

Ingredients

• 340 g (12 oz) canned chicken, very well drained
• 3 large eggs
• Optional seasonings: ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Step-by-step

Step 1 - Drain & blend

Drain chicken really well (press in a sieve or pat dry). Blend chicken + eggs (and seasonings if using) with a food processor/immersion blender until smooth.

Step 2 - Portion & shape

For bagels/bread rounds: spoon into nonstick donut tray or muffin/round silicone molds (1 ring = 1 slice).
For pizza base: spread on a parchment-lined sheet into an even ¼-⅓-inch layer.

Step 3 - Bake

Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes, until set and lightly golden at the edges.

Step 4 - Use it

Cool 2-3 min to firm up. Use as 2 slices per serving (sandwich), or top like pizza and return to the oven to melt cheese.

Substitutions & tips

• Extra sturdy: squeeze the chicken drier for a firmer crumb.
• Flavor ideas: ranch seasoning, everything bagel seasoning, Italian herbs, parmesan (changes macros).
• Crispier pizza: par-bake 15 min, top, then broil 1-2 min.

Storage

• Refrigerate up to 3 days. Reheat in a dry skillet or air fryer for best texture.

• ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper Optional seasonings: ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

 

• Drain chicken. Blend chicken and eggs until smooth; mix in optional seasonings.

Notes

• Tastes & texture is like omelet/nugget than bread, but it holds like bread.
