Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 T ghee or coconut oil plus more for greasing the baking dish
  • 6 oz breakfast or mild Italian sausage
  • cups broccoli slaw or 3 medium broccoli stalks, grated
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ t sea salt
  • ¼ t ground black pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • ¼ cup coconut cream or full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado thinly sliced, optional

Instructions
 

  • Grease a 6- or 7-inch casserole dish or springform pan.
  • If using a springform pan, wrap the bottom with foil to prevent leakage. Set aside.
  • Turn the Instant Pot to “Saute” mode and cook the sausage in the ghee until most of the pink has gone (about 3–4 minutes).
  • Add the broccoli slaw, garlic, salt, and pepper and saute for 2 minutes.
  • Press “Cancel” on the Instant Pot and transfer the mixture to the prepared dish.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and the coconut cream. Stir in the green onion.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish on top of the sausage, and cover tightly with foil.
  • Pour 1½ cups of water into the Instant Pot, and place a steamer rack or trivet on the bottom.
  • Put the casserole on the trivet and secure the Instant Pot lid. Move the vent knob to the sealed position and cook on “Manual” high pressure for 35 minutes.
  • When the cooking time is up, release the pressure naturally for 10 minutes and then carefully open the vent to release the rest of the pressure.
  • Remove the casserole from the Instant Pot. Slice and serve topped with fresh avocado
