Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or line with silicone muffin molds.
Place one bacon strip into each muffin cup, wrapping it around the edge to form a ring. If the bacon strip is too long, trim it to fit neatly.
In a small bowl, combine the chopped spinach, diced cherry tomatoes, and diced bell pepper.
Evenly distribute the vegetable mixture into the center of each bacon-lined cup.
Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheese on top of the vegetables in each muffin cup.
Crack one egg into each cup, taking care not to spill over the edges. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (or fully set, depending on your preference).
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the keto veggie bacon egg cups to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Carefully remove each egg cup from the muffin tin using a spoon or butter knife and serve warm. Enjoy!
