I’ve got an easy cheesy recipe for you today. These Keto Taco Cups are perfect for a quick dinner or appetizers for a party! You can make them in standard muffin tins like I did or make little bite size appetizers by using mini muffin tins! Either way, you will love this simple recipe.

What are Keto Taco Cups?

When I was a kid my mom would make recipes where you pushed biscuit or pizza dough into the bottom of muffin tins and then fill them with all sorts of good stuff. This is a low carb, gluten free spin on the same idea.

This recipe begins by making a batch of fat head dough. It is the same base recipe I use for these  and . I love how versatile it is. This dough is formed by combining melted mozzarella and cream cheese with almond flour and ground flaxseed until a soft dough forms. If you are new to keto don’t worry, I have a photo to show you exactly how to do it.
Once the dough is rolled out I use a mason jar lid to cut out circles to press into the muffin tin to form a crust. Then I add seasoned taco meat and shredded cheddar to each cup and bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

How many Taco Cups does this make?
This recipe makes 12 very full taco cups that come to 1.9 net carbs each. However, this is a very easy to stretch a big further if you are cooking for a crowd or if you are doing meal prep. By pressing your dough a little thinner and filling your cups 3/4 full of taco meat instead of to the brim you can get 16 (or more) from this recipe. If you make 16 taco cups they come to 1.4 net carbs each.
