Oh, don't get me wrong. I have had my fair share of stressing out over a holiday meal!

HOW TO MAKE KETO MAPLE MUSTARD ROASTED TURKEY BREAST
Please see the recipe card below for the complete recipe, including measurements and cooking time!
STEP 1

STEP 2
In a small bowl combine the softened butter, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper until mixed well.
STEP 3
Place turkey on a rimmed baking sheet with a wire rack (or in a shallow roasting pan with a rack) and pat dry. Rub the butter mixture onto the turkey.
STEP 4
Pour the water into the bottom of the pan (this keeps the drippings from burning) Roast the turkey in the oven for about 1 hour (20 minutes per pound or until the breast reaches 160 degrees F).

30 minutes through cooking, brush the turkey breast with half of the maple mustard glaze. Then brush with the remaining glaze at 45 minutes.

FAQS ABOUT KETO MAPLE MUSTARD ROASTED TURKEY BREAST
