Keto Burger Buns Thermomix Recipe

Sharing is caring!

Skinnymixers


I wrote this recipe for Low Carb Burger Buns when I fell in love with the popular burger bar version and it has been loved amongst the gluten free and low carb Thermomix community ever since.

These make great savoury pancakes, burger buns or can even be a sweet option with your preferred sweetener added.

Try cutting them into small squares and baking in the oven for low carb croutons to pair with my Chicken Caesar Salad recipe which can be found in the original ‘The Healthy Mix I’ recipe book.

If you have a Pie Maker you can use it to make perfectly round burger buns, check out the tips on ‘The Skinnymixers Guide to Pie Makers’.

Ingredients

  • 230 g raw almonds - or almond meal
  • 60 g tapioca flour
  • 15 g psyllium husk
  • 270 g coconut cream - Ayam brand
  • 130 g water
  • 5 whole eggs
  • 5 g salt

Instructions

  • Add half the almonds to mixer bowl, mill for 20 sec/speed 9/MC on. Set aside. Repeat with remaining almonds and return all milled almonds to the mixer bowl.
  • Add the tapioca flour, psyllium husk and salt to mixer bowl, blend for 5 sec/speed 5/MC on.
  • Using a spatula, scrape the flour mixture from the sides and bottom of the bowl to loosen it.
  • Add coconut cream, eggs and water to mixer bowl and blend for 1 min/speed 5/MC on.
  • Let mixture sit in the mixer bowl for 10 mins while you pre heat a 12.5 cm pan (single egg pan) to low/medium heat.
  • Dry fry around 50 g or 1.8 oz of mixture per bun until slightly browned on each side.
  • When all of the buns are cooked, you can either use them straight away as a savoury pancake with breakfast.
  • Alternatively: refrigerate buns for 8 hrs in an airtight container, once cooled, to use as burger buns or as a sandwich alternative.
  • To reheat for burger buns: grill on the BBQ or in a pan until warm.

Notes

This recipe makes roughly 20 buns, at 4 g carbohydrates per bun.
Cooked fresh, they are like pancakes. Refrigerate them for 8 hours to dry out and firm up for buns.
You can sprinkle sesame or poppy seeds on the uncooked side of the bun before flipping if desired.
This recipe was inspired by the Grill'd Low Carb Bun.

  1. Thank you for this recipe Nik! I think it could be a great gluten free substitute for injera too (Ethiopian bread).

  2. Ive been sending these with my hubby for his lunch with burger patties and he’s really loving them…being LCHF I generally just skip the bread…thought I would do an experiment and just had these with swiss cheese, ham and dijon in the sandwich press…OMG thank u so much NIK!!

  3. Thank you! Hubby misses bread so much. (LCHF). He is looking forward to having some toasted with his breakfast tomorrow. They will be a staple in our house!

  4. Hi Nik, I made these tonight with sunflower seeds and left the maple syrup out and they are great! Now I can send them to school as they are nut free. Thanks for another awesome recipe 🙂

  5. Thanks for the recipe!
    If I was to replace the eggs in the recipe
    would I substitute them for the purpose of binding, leavening or adding moisture?

  6. I do not have a thermomix but have a kenwood chef in which you can cook. How can I make this recipe in that as the times and temperatures that you have shown are for a particular kind of thermal mixer? Can I make this recipe without putting it into a thermal mixture? If so how? Awaiting for your reply eagerly. Thank you.

  7. I just love these. Made them again tonight with homemade coconut cream as I was out of tinned. I blitzed 300g desiccated coconut for 20 seconds on speed 9, then added 800g water and blended speed 9 for 1 minute. Strained through a nut milk bag. For the actual pancake/bun recipe, I used 400g of this cream instead of the 270g Ayam cream and 130g water, and upped the psyllium husk to 25g.

    1. Thanks for putting this info on here. I just put my son to bed and wanted to make these but realised I was out of canned coconut cream

  8. These are fantastic Nik! I made them because my white bread loving son needs an alternative. He would live on bread! Hopefully he likes these when he gets home from school. If not, more for me! Topping with avocado, ham and some chilli sauce for an easy healthy lunch x

  9. These are great. Thank you so much creating them. I’ve got a batch in the freezer & just popped 2 into the toaster to have with my scrambled eggs. Yum

  10. These are awesome! I toasted them and made a bacon and egg sandwhich for Sunday breaky! Hold together so well!

  11. Love this recipe. I have made them several times and used them as hamburger/steak sandwich buns as well as ‘toast’ for my scrambled eggs. They freeze and defrost well and toast nicely. The bonus is that they don’t fall apart when eating. They are also filling so don’t make them too big.

    1. Thank you you answered all my questions in your comment, I’m about to make these today and was wondering about them holding together and freezing.

  12. Another great recipe – I used them as wraps today and have the others cooling in the fridge 🙂 They were really yummy 🙂 Now to buy myself a smaller pan to make them like burgers!!!

  13. Really tasty and easy. Pretty much fail proof too, I used Brazil nuts instead of almonds and they worked perfectly. Just less time grinding.

  14. Thanks Nik. These were amazing and a massive hit with my 4 boys plus partner! We are the ones that had them with the Mexican pulled pork, caramelised onion and mozzarella cheese. So yummy! I like the idea of toasting them in the sandwich grilled to make them thinner. Could use them as a ‘pizza’ base then too. Next time I will make them a bit smaller so I can do the burger buns (which was my original intention but I just made them too big). 5 out of 5.

  15. These are fantastic ! My gut also approved !!!! Thanks so much for creating another great recipie. This ones a keeper !

  16. Great method for pancakes. Even though my family has not diet restrictions we love these. Very versatile for breakfast lunch or dinner. There in the frige now firming up for our burgers for dinner.

  17. These are awesome. I made them today and cooked them in the sandwich press and did them really thin so they turned out crisp and am using them as a healthy alternative to biscuits for homemade dip.
