Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

Almond Flour: A key ingredient providing a nutty flavor and gluten-free structure for our buns.
Eggs: Bind everything together while adding moisture; fresh eggs work best!
Baking Powder: This helps create a fluffy texture; be sure to use aluminum-free for a cleaner taste.
Salt: Just a pinch enhances the flavor profile beautifully; kosher salt is my go-to.
Butter: Melted butter adds richness; feel free to substitute with ghee for dairy-free options. Caesar salad with grilled chicken. For more inspiration, check out this Cucumber Caprese Salad recipe.

Let’s Make it together

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your buns bake evenly and achieve that perfect golden color.

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, and psyllium husk powder. Whisk until no lumps remain; this step is vital for even baking.

Add Wet Ingredients: Next, add melted butter and eggs to the dry mixture. Mix well until it’s fully incorporated into a thick dough—don’t worry if it feels slightly sticky.

Shape Your Buns: Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into round buns using your hands. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet; they will expand during baking.

Bake to Perfection: Bake in your preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top. You’ll know they’re done when they smell heavenly!

Cool Before Serving: Allow the buns to cool on a wire rack before slicing them in half. This keeps them from getting soggy when filled with your favorite burger toppings.

Enjoy these delightful keto-friendly burger buns with all your favorite fillings! Whether you’re enjoying them at a summer barbecue or as part of an everyday meal, they’re sure to impress everyone at the table. For more inspiration, check out this Chicken Taco Salad recipe.
