Keto Hamburger Buns

A recipe for keto hamburger buns using almond flour has been in the works for well over a year. You'll find this keto recipe easy and oh so satisfying.

I prefer to make these the day before so that they set up a little more. However,that doesn't always happen in 'life'! They work just fine once cooled --they're just a little softer.

My trick is to set them on a cooling rack and stick them in the fridge. Then we put the hamburgers on to cook while the buns cool quickly.

This same recipe would work great for hot dog or brat buns too, you'll just need to shape them appropriately and make them a little taller.

Easy Keto Hamburger Buns

First, print out the keto recipe using the recipe card below. Notice you can adjust the servings inside the interactive recipe card and make a larger batch and freeze them.

Then, when you're headed to a cookout you can grab a few low carb hamburger buns out of the freezer and go!

This also works if you're going to be eating out or grabbing drive-through on a car-trip. Just order bunless and use your own.

Keto Hamburger Buns

These Keto Hamburger buns are seasoned with garlic and onion powder which pairs perfectly with a beautiful grass-fed hamburger smothered in cheese. These work best if you make them the day ahead. However, they work just fine if you make them the same day. Just stick them in the fridge to rapidly cool and set-up.

  • On a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, divide the batter into six mounds. Shape each mound until about a half inch thick or just slightly smaller than how big you want your hamburger buns.They will rise and spread some as they bake. If you want a taller bun to slice, do not press them down.
  • Sprinkle with sesame seeds if you wish.
    Keto Hamburger Buns ready to bake
  • Bake in a 350 degree (325 Convection) oven for 14-16 minutes. The buns should be evenly browned and set up in the middle. When you tap lightly on the middle, they shouldn’t collapse.
  • Allow to cool on a cooling rack for at least an hour. To speed this process you can set your cooling rack in the fridge so they cool faster.
  • Store in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to three days. If you need to store them longer, store in a tightly sealed container in the freezer.

    Is the cheese necessary for the recipe to work? Am lactose intolerant.
