Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Grease a muffin tin with the butter, ensuring each cup is well-coated to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well beaten.
Add the heavy cream to the eggs and mix thoroughly to combine.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped bacon, and green onions, mixing until evenly distributed.
Season the egg mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then stir again to ensure the seasonings are incorporated.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the egg puffs are golden brown and fully set in the center.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before gently removing the egg puffs from the muffin tin.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your low carb egg puff!
