Directions

1
Whisk three eggs in a large mixing bowl.
Make certain the eggs are at room temperature. Whisk eggs together until the mixture becomes homogenous. In other words, "Mix till it looks well mixed". Why say a lot of words when few words do the trick?
2
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl. 
Add the remaining ingredients: (1 cup of cheddar cheese, four tablespoons of almond flour, one tablespoon of parmesan cheese, and ¼ tsp xanthan gum) to the egg mixture and whisk until everything is well combined. 
3
Shape the dough.
When you have achieved the right consistency, which is dough-like, you can start shaping. Line your baking tray with parchment paper, and place equal four to five spoonfuls of the mixture. You can shape them as desired. 
4
Bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees and then broil for 3 minutes.
After broiling, remove keto buns from the oven. Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack and let the hamburger buns cool for a few minutes before tasting them. Serve warm, and enjoy! 

Notes

  • You can use coconut flour if you don’t have almond flour. But if you do, ensure your eggs are large enough so the dough mixture doesn't get clumpy. 
  • Use a cookie scoop instead of a spoon for equal dough portions. 
  • If you don’t have parchment paper, you can slightly grease the baking sheet with butter or oil. This can also prevent the dough from sticking to the sheet. 
  • Our low carb bread recipes serve as a substitute for white bread. You can enjoy them with your favorite spread.
  • You can serve hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, or even tacos (with a few modifications) on these delicious buns! Just shape them accordingly before they bake. 
  • Leftover buns should be placed in the fridge to maintain their freshness. Place them in tightly-sealed containers. 

Tools You'll need

Besides the ingredients you'll need for these low-carb hamburger buns, you'll also need to gather tools for the job. The best tools for these best keto hamburger buns are:

  • A whisk. You need this to mix everything. And because the recipe is simple, you don’t need a high-end stand or hand mixer.
  • Large mixing bowl. This is where you will mix all the ingredients to make your keto hamburger bun dough. Always go for the largest bowl to provide ease when mixing. A smaller bowl might lead to a frustrating experience incorporating the ingredients.
  • A spoon. Scoop the mixture and portion equally when it’s time to bake.
  • Baking sheet with parchment paper. Provide a nonstick surface for the shaped buns to rise before baking them. Parchment paper is mess free tool that prevents the dough from sticking to the baking sheet or pan. You can go without it, but you'll likely pay for this decision when it's time to clean up.
  • Oven with a broiler function. These buns need to be baked, ideally in an oven but not worry as most ovens in conventional kitchens come with a broiler function. Broiling gives a nice crisp crunch and golden brown appearance.
