I’m tired of buying burgers that fall apart after I put them in the oven and I hear that other people are, too. I’m also tired of buying hamburger buns that fall apart and can’t be fixed with a few stitches.
The Easter Bunny has returned for another year, and he’s bringing with him the most delicious little treat—hamburgers. Most kids will be at the park riding bikes, playing games, or just out and about in the backyard. However, there are a few little ones that aren’t quite as energetic, and this is where Soft Keto Hamburger Buns come in. These soft, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth, delicious little buns will be the perfect addition to your Easter feast.
I have been wanting to try out the ketogenic diet for a while now. It is essentially a diet that focuses on using fats for energy instead of carbs. On a ketogenic diet, your body burns fat for energy instead of carbs. But since it is not a very popular diet, finding food options that don’t fall apart is difficult. The ideal keto friendly bread would be soft, fluffy, and not crumble in your hands. These keto burger buns will not only be soft and fluffy, but they will be able to stand up to the thickest, juiciest burger you could make.
Our keto hamburger buns are fluffy and bready, exactly the way you want them to be. Plus, these low-carb hamburger buns can withstand all of your favorite keto toppings. These almond flour hamburger buns will blow your socks off! No more mushy keto cloud bread or excessively crispy cheese wraps!
Are Hamburger Buns on a Keto Diet a Thing?
Standard hamburger buns, as wonderful as they are, are not keto-friendly. There are 28 grams of carbohydrates and less than 1 gram of fiber in one regular sesame seed crusted hamburger bun (1). There’s no need to be concerned; each of our keto hamburger buns has just TWO net carbohydrates!
Keto Burgers without the bun
While keto allows you to eat burgers without buns, what’s the joy in that? We brought the finest keto hamburger buns to the table instead of settling for a plain old lettuce wrap. They’re created with a combination of almond and coconut flour, making them the ideal low-carb hamburger bun for every occasion.
Hamburger Buns on a Keto Diet for Fatheads
You must attempt a fathead dough recipe if you want to create keto-friendly hamburger buns. When warmed, it produces soft, supple, and robust buns. So, what exactly is this fathead dough? Fathead dough is made with mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and eggs and is keto-friendly. It’s high in fat and protein while being very low in carbohydrates. It’s a fantastic recipe for all your keto baking requirements, and we use it to create not just this dish, but also pizza, naan, and even bagels!
Why Should You Avoid Fiber?
As you can see, there is no oat fiber or psyllium husk in this recipe. We’ve discovered that eating too much fiber may irritate our stomachs and produce gas and bloating (2). Overall, we thought that a bun with no additional fiber was the best option for a keto-friendly bun. These buns are still light, fluffy, and tasty, making them ideal for any recipe.

Hamburger Buns on a Keto Diet (Gluten-Free)
These gluten-free hamburger buns are the ideal recipe for you if you’re gluten-free. They’re prepared using a combination of high-quality low-carb flours including coconut and almond flour. There’s no need to buy expensive “gluten free” advertised goods that are full of rice starch and fillers anymore.
Coconut & Almond Flour
Fibers are used in traditional keto bread and low carb burger buns to reduce carbohydrates. On the other hand, our keto burger buns are made with high-quality ingredients such as cream cheese, coconut flour, and almond flour. This keto bread/bun recipe combines both coconut and almond flour because it gives it the greatest bread-like texture without adding any additional fibers to make it chewy. We don’t suggest omitting any of the two flours since they both contribute to the flavor and texture of the dish.
Other Bun-Free Alternatives
If preparing keto burger buns seems like a hassle since you’re short on time, there are alternative choices. The following are some more vegetable options:
- Lettuce– This is an obvious classic, but if you ask, almost any restaurant will make you a burger without a bun.
- Roasted Eggplant Slices– Using an air fryer or an oven, crisp up some eggplant slices. Then, between two pieces of bread, sandwich a burger patty and stuff it with all the fixings.
- Portobello Mushrooms– When grilled on a hot grill, portobello mushrooms make excellent meaty buns. For added taste, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt.
- Bell pepper halves– Crisp and refreshing burger buns may be made using bell pepper halves. We serve them raw, but a little char from the grill is equally delicious.
All of these vegetarian keto burger buns are excellent, but don’t be scared to add meat. No one has ever turned down a burger without a bun composed of burger patties and topped with additional cheese!
Ingredients for the Best Keto Hamburger Buns
There are many recipe possibilities for these delectable keto hamburger buns. Some of our favorite easy-to-make low-carb bread recipe choices include:
- Buffalo Chicken Burger– If you’re on a low-carb diet, these buffalo chicken burgers are ideal. They’re flavorful and spicy, making them an excellent burger to serve with our buns.
- Our Loaded Jalapeo Burger– We mean it when we say it’s loaded. Bacon, cheese, and even grilled jalapeos are all included in this simple burger.
- Low-carb Chicken Salad– Made with high-quality mayonnaise and fresh crunchy celery, this chicken salad is creamy and crisp. Inside your fluffy keto hamburger buns, it’s the ideal mix of taste and texture. The greatest thing is that it’s simple to prepare and is gluten and sugar free!
Allowing yourself to enjoy all of your favorite baked goods and burger recipes while on a keto diet is not anything to be ashamed of. Simply bake smarter, not harder, and you’ll be able to enjoy all of your favorites!
Is it Possible to Make Dairy-Free Hamburger Buns?
We had to switch ingredients to create a fathead dough to make keto hamburger buns (a dough based of cheese and eggs). However, without the cheese and cream cheese, this dough would not function. They give the dough a chewy, bread-like texture while keeping the net carb count low. Vegan cheese and cream cheese are also not recommended since they may make the dough excessively moist.
Keto Hamburger Buns: How to Make Them
Grilling season has here, which means it’s time to polish your hamburger and burger bun recipes. So let’s go to work creating the greatest almond flour burger bun you’ve ever eaten!
Equipment
These keto buns with almond flour are easy to prepare and don’t need many equipment. A large baking sheet, a silpat mat or parchment paper, and an ice cream scoop are all you’ll need. If you don’t have an ice cream scoop, no worries; just split the dough into four pieces by hand.
Ingredients
Shredded mozzarella, eggs, and cream cheese are required for these keto buns. Make sure the mozzarella is pre-shredded rather than a large fresh ball. If it’s still fresh, it’ll have too much water in it and turn into a soupy mess in the microwave. When buying cream cheese, aim for the one with the fewest net carbohydrates. If you don’t examine the nutrition information, cream cheese may contain fillers that increase the carb amount.
You’ll need almond flour and coconut flour for the dry ingredients. For the greatest overall texture, we use basic blanched almond flour without the skins. Then you’ll need baking powder to help the buns rise and sesame seeds to sprinkle on top. Use baking powder instead of baking soda. The sesame seeds are optional, but strongly recommended, since they give our keto low carb buns a true hamburger bun taste.
How to Make Low-Carb Hamburger Buns
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F before beginning to prepare keto hamburger buns. Then, in a microwave-safe dish, melt the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese together. Intervals of 45 seconds should be worked in, with stirring in between. If you heat it for too long, the cheese in the bowl may burn. All you need is for the two ingredients to melt and combine in the basin.
Now add the egg and egg white to the mix.
Stir thoroughly and use a fork to incorporate the eggs. It may be tough to blend the two, but do your hardest. You don’t want too much separation, but a bit is OK.
After the eggs have mixed, add the baking powder and your keto flours (almond flour and coconut flour). Combining the flours using a rubber baking spatula may be easier.
Now use a slipmat or parchment paper to line your baking sheet. Using an ice cream scoop or your hands, divide the hamburger bun dough into four pieces. Place the parts on the silicone surface after rolling them into four even balls.
Brush the tops with water after lightly pressing down on the dough. Place the four dough balls in the oven and equally sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
Preheat oven to 350°F and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow a few minutes to cool before cutting in half, else the centers will be extremely hot.
Keeping Burger Buns Safe
Our hamburger bread recipe keeps for 7-10 days in the fridge. The low carb buns should not be kept on the counter since they include a lot of cheese and dairy, which will cause them to mold if left out. For instructions on how to freeze, see the notes below.
Is it possible to freeze hamburger buns?
You’ll be relieved to learn that these keto buns can be frozen. We often prepare a large quantity and then freeze a portion of it for later use. Simply put the buns in an airtight container and freeze them for up to 2 months.
Place your keto buns in the fridge or on the counter for a few hours to thaw. You may re-crisp them in the oven at 350 for a few minutes after they’ve been defrosted, since the additional moisture may cause them to lose some of their sturdiness.
The Best Keto Low Carb Bun Tips
If you’re ready to create the greatest keto-friendly hamburger bun ever, keep these pointers in mind:
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet– This shouldn’t be a problem since each batch yields 4 buns (each with just 2 net carbohydrates!). If you double the recipe, ensure sure the buns are equally spaced apart. When you sprinkle sesame seeds on top, you want an equal layer of covering and no expansion that causes the buns to collide.
- Don’t Forget the Sesame– The sesame seeds are what truly set these buns distinct and give them the feel of a genuine hamburger bun rather than a roll. You may omit the sesame seeds if you don’t have any, but we don’t suggest it!
- Warm Before Serving– Instead of psyllium husk, this recipe utilizes egg whites to create a fluffy dough and cheese to make them bready. However, since the egg whites may become less flexible as they cool, we suggest warming them up for a few seconds before serving.
- Instead of scrambled eggs, make Low Carb Dough!– If you heat and melt cheese with eggs, you may discover that if the cheese is too hot, the eggs will cook. To prevent scrambled eggs, just gently cook the cheese until it melts in this dish. If you need to reheat the cheese because it has hardened, do it in 10-second intervals to avoid overcooking the eggs.
Not only should you create keto hamburger buns, but you should make them the greatest buns you’ve ever had. You’ve studied the recipe and are ready to tackle it!
Keto Recipes with Carbs
Let’s face it, there’s nothing quite like freshly made bread; it might almost be its own food category. However, as delicious as it is, it is not keto friendly! Stick to your guns and check out these tasty keto bread recipes when your carb cravings strike:
- Banana Bread on the Keto Diet– Who doesn’t like thick, sweet banana bread? To get the finest banana taste without the carbohydrates, we utilized a secret ingredient.
- Tortillas Keto – These soft, fluffy, and flexible tortillas are prepared in little under 10 minutes. When you’re wanting tacos or burritos, they’re the ideal low-carb alternative.
