Prep Time

Prep Notes
These are the BEST gluten-free hamburger buns I have found so far. They have eggs in them, so they are not vegan.
I found this recipe on YouTube - it's creator is the Keto-King. There is a video link at the bottom of this recipe. I suggest you watch his video to get an idea of how to make these buns.
Cooking Time
50 minutes
Yields
4 - 5 buns; depending on size you make them
Ingredients
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup almond flour; not almond meal
- ¼ flax seed meal; ground into powder using a coffee grinder
- 4 eggs; separate 3 eggs; use whites of 3 eggs, and 1 whole egg
- Dash sea salt
- 1 tsp organic apple cider vinegar
- 3 Tbsp. finely ground psyllium husk powder; use coffee grinder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 cup water
- Either sesame seeds or dry onion flakes to top buns
Directions
- Add all dry ingredients to a mixing bowl and thoroughly whisk to blend.
- Separate three eggs, using only whites, plus one whole egg; whisk to blend.
- Add water and apple cider vinegar to eggs and whisk to blend.
- Add liquid to dry ingredients, whisk to blend thoroughly, but be careful not to over mix here as it adds air pockets in the buns.
- Dough is thick, scoop bun portions onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Carefully shape into round buns using the back of a large spoon, or spatula, or your fingers. The shape you put them into the oven is the shape they will stay.They will puff up nicely when baked.
- Top with either sesame seeds or dry onion flakes for an authentic looking and tasting burger bun. Press seeds or flakes gently to dough to stick while baking.
- Bake at 350 F. for 50 minutes. Buns will spring gently to the touch when cooked.
- Place on rack to cool thoroughly before slicing. Buns have a nice texture, and can be sliced and toasted. Fill with your favorite meatless burger or sandwich fixings and enjoy!
