š„Ingredients:
You could sub in coconut flour if you need to but only use 1 tbsp.
šØš½āš³ How to make the bun:
- In a small cereal bowl, thoroughly mix the baking powder and almond flour ensuring that there are no clumps.
See the photos further down below in the post for the bowls that we use to get the nice bun shape. This goes a long way in making your bun feel like ārealā bread.
- Add the oil and egg.
- Beat it like youāre making an omelet.
Use a fork to make sure you get all of the clumps out and whip it with the fork to get maximum fluff out of your bread.
- Microwave on high for 90 seconds.
- At the end of 90 seconds you will have a bun in the shape of the bottom of the bowl.
The bun will slightly pull away from the sides of the bowl when itās done.
Once you remove the bun from the bowl, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. You donāt have to wait if you donāt want to. But youāll get a better result.
Slice through the midsection with a bread knife so that you have a top and bottom.
š Tips and FAQās:
- If you like seeds on your bun sprinkle some in the bottom of the bowl before adding batter.
Or, brush the top with olive oil and butter then sprinkle them on before toasting in the toaster oven
- You can use this low carb bun for any kind of sandwich you want but it will definitely stand up to your juiciest burger IFā¦you let it cool before you slice it.
It is very soft when it is still warm.
- Itāll hold up even better if you toast it before you start adding a bunch of wet ingredients like the burger, mayonnaise and tomatoes, etc.
My favorite way to toast this bun is in a cast iron pan with butter.
- Burgers are always an easy Keto Meal but you canāt live on burgers aloneā¦
Try one of these with your burgerā¦
- Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Shake
- Zucchini Fries
- Tabouli Salad
- Keto KFC Copycat Coleslaw
- Strawberry Milkshake
- Keto Classic Vanilla Shake
š„£ Which bowl should you use?
This Burger Bun Recipe is fairly simple but I have been getting some comments about the shape of the bun so I decided to post what we use to make themā¦
We use these three bowls just depending on what shape we would like (and what is clean lol).
On the left is a deep cereal bowl, in the middle is a soup mug and on the left is a large ramekin.
For burgers, the cereal bowl works well because it is a little wider and can accommodate a reasonable sized burger. The bowls with a smaller circumference will result in a āthickerā bun with a smaller circumference.
I made the sandwich in the photo below in the cereal bowl on the leftā¦
I didnāt toast it or add seeds to this one or even try to make it pretty for the photoā¦it was just a quickie meal.
This Low Carb Burger Bun recipe never disappoints. I made three buns in in about ten minutes total including prep time.
If you need a little help making the best damn patty in the world learn from the expert right hereā¦
Thatās it for the Keto Two Minute Burger Buns!
I would love to hear from you in the comment section if you have any awesome additions or questions.
Cheers everyone!

Notes
3 Net Carbs Each
Note: I usually toast these before making my burger or sandwich.
When calculating the carbohydrates for the Keto Diet subtract the fiber from the carbohydrates to get the NET CARBS. Fiber does not create an insulin response and should not be counted in your allotted daily macros.
