Egg Fast Recipe: Lemon Filled Danish (2024)

Many long time low carbers are very familiar with the low carb recipe called Mock Danish. It’s an old standard Atkins recipe and almost every keto blog out there has this recipe in their files. I made it egg fast friendly for you!

Keto Egg Fast Lemon Filled Danish

You know those danish in the grocery store that have that little center of lemony stuff in the middle? No, I’m sure you don’t! :-)

All I’ve done to the original low carb mock danish is add my own little lemon twist to it while still keeping it egg fast friendly!

If you are tired of boiled, scrambled, poached and deviled eggs and need a boost to your egg fast, this egg fast recipe will perk you up for sure!

I do prefer to avoid sweeteners as much as possible, but with this Lemon Filled Danish I used stevia to taste. On the egg fast it is better to use a liquid stevia like this one.

Tools you will need for this Egg Fast Lemon Danish:

• Small microwavable bowl
• Silicone Baking Cups or small ramekins
• rubber spatula

Keto Lemon Danish Ingredients You will Need

• Cream cheese (full fat and brick type like Philadelphia Cream Cheese)
• Eggs
• Stevia
• cinnamon

Filling ingredients

• Coconut oil
• Butter
• Lemon Extract or lemon zest or True Lemon packets
• Stevia to taste

Low Carb Lemon Filled Danish Instructions

1. In a small microwavable bowl, soften the cream cheese for 30 to 60 seconds depending on your microwave.
2. Stir with fork until very creamy.
3. Add eggs and beat well until well combined. Add stevia to taste.
4. Divide between 2 large Silicone Baking Cups
5. Sprinkle with cinnamon
6. Put on plate and microwave, checking every 20-30 seconds until done. While still warm, make a little well in the middle. Place in the fridge to cool.

Make Lemon Danish Filling

1. In a small glass dish combine coconut oil and butter
2. Microwave for 30 seconds
3. Stir until everything melted
4. Add lemon extract and stevia to taste.
5. Put in fridge to cool

Once the lemon filling cools down (it will no longer be clear, it will start to look yellow) spoon it into the center of the 2 danishes. Put back in the fridge until cooled.

For the purposes of the keto egg fast, each Danish will count as 1 egg, 1 cheese and 1 fat.
