Keto Carnivore Morning Smoothie
With low-carb and high-fat macros, this breakfast smoothie with egg is made for a keto diet but equally useful on many other wellness and fertility diets.
I know egg in a smoothie might sound a bit odd. However, if you already like eggs, it makes a lot of sense. They are a relatively cheap source of protein and easy to find just about anywhere.
My ratios weren’t quite right when I first tested the Carnivore Egg Pudding Recipe. Instead of the firm, custard-like texture, I ended up with a thick creamy drink. My kids and I joked that we were drinking melted ice cream, but really, it was a delicious high-fat vanilla smoothie!
I think this recipe is nice for parents who want to add more nutrient-dense foods to their children’s diet. Eggs and cream are great for developing bodies and minds. By adding a sweetener (as noted below), you’ll make it so delicious they won’t be able to put it down.

How to Make a Carnivore Diet Smoothie
As you might expect, making this smoothie with egg is pretty easy. You only need a few ingredients and, if the eggs are already boiled, about 5 minutes to measure and blend the ingredients.
It’s a quick option for the morning or afternoon. Choosing a keto egg smoothie starts the day with a healthy dose of satiating protein and fats and will help you continue to feel full for hours. Alternatively, when the afternoon rolls around, and you want an easy carnivore snack, this smoothie will keep you full until dinner. Either way, you can’t go wrong.
Ingredients
Eggs – Adding eggs to smoothies introduces a high-quality protein and fat source; each large egg contains 5 grams fat and 6 grams protein. (1) Soft-boiled eggs give this smoothie a thicker volume and makes the egg whites more bioavailable and digestible. (2, 3)
Liquid – Any full-fat dairy will blend well with boiled eggs. I favor half-and-half, but you can also substitute with whole raw milk, heavy cream, or yogurt. If you prefer a dairy-free option, use coconut-based food such as coconut cream, coconut milk, or coconut yogurt instead. Do note that coconut is not an animal-based food and, therefore, not technically carnivore.
Flavor – Add a pinch of salt. Then, consider vanilla extract as a fiber-free addition with a deliciously sweet flavor but no carbs. I add one teaspoon, which reduces the eggy taste. If tolerated, a proper sweetener is nice too. Use a keto sweetener, raw honey, or maple syrup. You can mix and match the suggested ingredients based on personal goals and food sensitivities.
Honey and maple are particularly useful if you want to gain weight on carnivore.
Optional Add-ins
- Collagen powder
- Gelatin powder
- Bone broth powder
- MCT oil
Step-by-Step Directions
It’s an easy 1-2-3 process and then done.
Blend all ingredients
Add all ingredients to the bowl of a blender and blend until smooth.
Taste and adjust
Taste and adjust optional sweetener as needed. If your eggs are medium or hard-boiled, add another splash or two of liquid and thin the smoothie to your liking. Hard-boiled egg in smoothie thickens the texture significantly, so be aware of that while you adjust your ratios accordingly.
Prepare to serve
Divide into two cups and serve immediately. Yum!

Cooked Egg Smoothie FAQ
Yes, you can put raw eggs in a smoothie if you are comfortable. However, I suggest boiled eggs here to thicken the smoothie and make the protein more bioavailable.
There is a nuanced discussion around raw eggs in a smoothie being safe or not. I avoid the issue by using cooked eggs. However, from personal experience with fresh eggs from a quality source and my own backyard chickens, they have never caused a problem. If you choose to add raw eggs, make quality and freshness as a priority when purchasing. Furthermore, examine both sides of the argument and conclude if the potential risk is worth the benefit.
Vanilla and optional sweetener smooths and enhances the flavor, so you get the creamy egg yolk flavor, but it isn’t overpowering. The egg flavor becomes more pronounced if you omit one or two of those ingredients.
Yes! With the simple adjustment of adding ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon and ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg to the blender, you can make a delicious eggnog smoothie.

Can I use the refrigerated fake eggs instead of boiled eggs?
Hi Cindy, I don’t have experience with refrigerated fake eggs. I’m not sure how that substitution would work.
This is brilliant, thank you. Really needed something like this to replace bacon and eggs for a change. Plus great for breakfasts on the go.
Although not strictly carnivore, a tip when boiling the eggs is to add some distilled vinegar/apple cider vinegar (1 tablespoon). You won’t actually consume the vinegar but somehow it reduces the heavy sulfur smell and taste of the eggs. Learned this recently and it’s been a game changer for recipes like this one. 🙂
Hi Sasha, thanks for your comments and tips. Nice to hear the recipe gave you some variety, that can be so important with the success of this diet.
Never thought that egg smoothie is so delicious and pleasing! It turned out so comfy and rich. Plus the texture is remarkable! New go-to breakfast recipe!
It’s like a smooth and creamy custard, isn’t it? Glad you gave it a try Sharina!
I was nervous about using raw eggs even though I need the protein. This is a perfect solution! I feel amazing after this smoothie and will be making this all the time. 🙂 Thank you for the recipe!
I’m so happy to help Gen. No need to worry about raw eggs in smoothies. The hard-boiled option is the way to go. Thanks for leaving a review.
I’ve been trying to get more protein in my day, and this is just what I needed! I’ll be making this regularly. Even my husband enjoyed it, and he was quite hesitant to try. 😉 Thanks!
It’s great to hear that this recipe is helping you get more protein in your diet. Thanks for the review!
It’s my first time trying these egg smoothies, and they turned out really perfect! Plus, I love how this smoothie is healthy for our bodies! Such a great recipe to add to my breakfast routine!
Thanks so much for visiting and leaving a review. I appreciate it!
This recipe was a great addition to the month of Carnivore I do every year. I typically drink only water but have been looking for something to mix it and found this recipe. It was a great way to enjoy the benefits of eggs.
While you’re eating carnivore, remember bone broth too. That’s a nice warming drink to add to your routine. Good luck with your 30 days of carnivore. We have a lot more meat-based recipes, so come back for more soon!
I love this smoothie! It’s so simple, yet so delicious. I’m the mom of a little one who is all about the protein, so this is a perfect way to sneak in some animal-based nutrients while she’s sipping on something sweet and creamy.
I’m happy to hear this, Jane! I have had success with my children liking this recipe too. They say it tastes like melted vanilla ice cream. Thanks so much for visiting and leaving a review.
Can you refrigerate it?
You sure can refrigerate this! I would expect the drink to thicken a bit upon chilling. Likely best eaten within three days.
I boil a batch of eggs every week for easy snacking. I love mixing things up with this smoothie and it’s that much easier to make with the eggs all ready to go.
Since you already like eggs for snacking, I think you’ll like this pickled egg recipe too!
