Keto No-Nut Mini Green Bean Casseroles

For the holiday seasons, or any time you want a family-style Keto side dish at your table, you can make these mini green bean casseroles. They’re a little different than what you might see served at Thanksgiving or Christmas. There’s no fried onion, no processed canned soup, and no nuts! However, these mini casseroles still have tender insides with a crunchy topping. Heavy cream and cream cheese have been added to make this recipe Keto. Bacon bits sprinkled on top is what will make everyone grab for these at dinner time. Please note that this recipe does include the spice, nutmeg. If you have any seed allergies, you may want to omit this spice or avoid making this recipe.

I’m Using Fresh Green Beans

This green bean casserole recipe uses frozen green beans. When thawed, using frozen green beans will cut down on your cooking time significantly. However, you can prepare fresh green beans for the same result. Cook whole green beans in boiling water until they turn bright green. Then, transfer the green beans to an ice bath to cool quickly. Once the green beans are cooled, you can chop them into small pieces like what you’d get inside a frozen bag. Using fresh green beans will result in a slightly firmer mini casserole, but be careful not to overcook them when they’re boiling. Otherwise, the green beans will become too soft in the oven later.
