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. Just made these for a relative that is gluten free. They are tasty and easy to make(although they do take a little bit of time to cook). I will probably make these again for myself!!

  2. I have made these previously with linseed as I didn’t have psyllium but bought some this week and just made a batch. I had to add at least twice the amount of water to be able to spread them in the pan and they were thus a bit uneven and didn’t seem to cook as well. Has anyone else had this or did I do something wrong? PS We love them either made with sunflower seeds or Almonds.

  3. Love this recipe! So easy and tasty. I halved the recipe using 2 eggs and 5 grams psyllium husk and cooked them in egg rings on the stove. Came out perfectly! I want to try making with dairy cream next time as I find the coconut flavour to be quite strong.

  4. These turned out so well. I omitted the water and baked them in English muffin rings at 180C for about 15 mins. I ended up with 16 perfectly shaped burger buns and they taste fantastic. Thanks for the recipe!

  5. Did any one find these a bit too salty ?
    Or have I done something wrong here ! Lol
    I used pink Himalayan salt

    1. 5g is approz a teaspoon maybe your scales didnt register correctly? I use pink salt and dont find salty (and I’m one to skimp on salting)

      1. Yeah I think my scales must be out of whack. Made these again tonight and used a teaspoon and they turned out perfect and not too salty at all ! 🙂

  6. I just made up a mix of these unsure if its meant to be so thik but ill see how it turns out. Im excited to make my own burgers at home instead of having to go to grill’d when i want a burger

  7. Made these yesterday with your peri peri chicken so we could have home made Nandos. Let them sit in the fridge then I reheated/toasted in a dry pan and firm them up a little more. Served with the chicken, home made mayo and lettuce, better than the real thing! Can’t wait to try these other ways.

  8. What can you use instead of the tapioca flour? Apart from coconut flour I don’t use any grain based stuff. Or arrowroot. I do strict low carb.

    1. Why do people find recipes and then have complaints about the ingredients and ask for replacements? If you can’t have the suggested ingredients then find a different recipe! What’s worse is when they sub ingredients, then say stuff like “bad recipe, didn’t turn out when I swapped 5 of the ingredients..” This recipe AS IS, is simply great! 5 stars.

  9. Fantastic. Another great recipe. I had them with minestrone soup when they were fresh and they soaked up the soup! Yum! Can’t wait to try them for lunch tomorrow as either a sandwich or pizza.
    Thanks Nik x

    1. I’ve just replaced it with arrowroot 1:1 and while I don’t have anything to compare it with, they’ve worked beautifully. So delicious. Just hope i have enough for dinner! Can’t stop sampling them.

      1. Tapioca and arrowroot are the same thing. You really can’t substitute the tapioca/arrowroot and get a similar result. So people who carry on about the tapioca replacements need to FIND A DIFFERENT RECIPE! common sense is hard to find these days apparently.

  10. Just tried my first skinnies recipe 🙂
    Tried one with ice cream and maple syrup drizzled on top. Verdict. Delicious. I’ve got the rest of the batch in the fridge and will use for work during the week for various meals. I did find the mixture pretty sticky and found the best way to spread it onto the pan was with two spoons and then spread out.

  11. Made these today and used them as the outside for burgers. Loved them. All I heard from hubby was ‘om nom nom’ and the kids love the pamcakes as they called them. Lol

  12. Made these last night:

    Husband: These are f***ing amazing babe
    Me: Thanks, didn’t think you’d like them as you hate the Grill’d buns
    Husband: Yeh, but these just work

    From my POV they held together a lot better than the Grill’d buns, which go really soggy,
    So delicious and so easy to make.

  13. Thank you! These are Delish. Just made my first batch and cannot wait to have them toasted for breakfast tomorrow as I gave up bread about 6 weeks ago and really miss my toast!! And I miss burgers even more than toast!! Haha

  14. What a versatile recipe this is. I had a burger for tea last night using these badboys. Then this morning i had banana and honey on one for breaky. Holy moly it was good. I might try avo on one tomorrow. Such a good bread alternative as i avoid yeast!

  15. These are amazing! My toddlers love them to dip in maple syrup instead of traditional pancakes. I try to eat LCHF and love them as burger buns, pancakes and even pizza base! So versatile and delicious.

  16. I just made these!! I forgot to add the water though, so I got only 7 but they were so good anyway. I will add the water next time so the mixture goes further. Thanks for these!

    1. Ha…just reading comments as I’m cooking my batch & got to your message. Dang it…I’d forgotten the water too!
