Easy Keto Bacon Jam

This sweet and savory Keto jam is a perfectly filling breakfast or an afternoon snack. Preparation is effortless and only takes about 30 minutes from start to finish. This fantastic Keto bacon jam is best when served warm with crackers, cheese, or fresh veggies. You can also refrigerate the leftover jam in an airtight container and serve it cold or gently reheat it in your microwave (make sure to cool the jam completely before refrigerating it). We added two tablespoons of maple-flavored syrup to the recipe, but you can adjust the sweetness according to your taste. You can also omit the cayenne or add some more – depending on your preference. Enjoy!

What type of vinegar to use?

We used apple cider vinegar for this recipe. However, you can replace it with balsamic or sherry vinegar and adjust the balance of sweetness according to your taste.

Can I use turkey bacon?

Absolutely! You can replace your regular bacon with the same amount of turkey bacon and prepare a pork-free bacon jam.
