Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups shredded cheese (mozzarella cheese * See notes)
2 oz cream cheese
1 3/4 cups almond flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 large eggs
1 large egg
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional )

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add the shredded cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 20 second spurts, until the cheese is mostly melted. Remove and whisk together, until combined and smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.
  • Transfer the warm cheese mixture into a food processor. Add the dry ingredients, along with the eggs, and pulse until a thick dough remains.
  • Lightly dust a kitchen surface with almond flour. Transfer the dough onto it, and, using slightly wet hands, knead it several times. Once the dough is smooth, divide it into 6 portions. Roll the portions of dough into balls and place them on the lined tray. Press down onto each one into a thinner burger bun shape. Brush the tops with the remaining egg (whisked), before sprinkling the sesame seeds on top.
  • Bake the buns for 14-17 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes, before slicing in half and serving.

"HAMBURGER" BUNS (ZERO CARB!)



These mock "Hamburger" buns are amazingly bread-like in texture (and taste!) and are suitable for all phases of The Dukan Diet! Once completely cool, seal them in a ziplock storage baggie or a tupperware over night. They will totally change their consistency, to something much more like bread - a softer texture that is nice and chewy. While warm they are crumbly and similar to cooked meringue - but don't let this fool you! Since the sides that were facing the pan are perfectly flat, you use these to spread things on, or make sandwiches, or even as a burger bun! My favorite is spreading cream cheese on both sides (like a sandwich) and stuffing with a freshly poached egg...delish!

Time 35m

Yield 2 halves/buns, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 whole large eggs (separated)
3 tablespoons low fat cottage cheese (or fat-free cream cheese)
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 teaspoons Splenda sugar substitute, granulated (or preferred artificial sweetener)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (or 175 Celcius).
  • Separate your eggs making sure there is absolutely no yolk in the white mixture.
  • In a small bowl, mix together egg yolks, cottage cheese, and sweetener until creamy.
  • In a larger bowl, add egg whites and cream of tartar and beat the whites with an electric mixer on high until fluffy. You want this mixture to be well whipped and quite stiff - under mixing will result in a very runny mixture.
  • Carefully fold egg yolk mixture into the egg whites with a large spatula, until evenly mixed. Try not to over-mix, you don't want to loose the 'fluffiness' of the egg whites mixture.
  • Spray two cookie sheets with Pam (or fat-free cooking spray).
  • With a large spoon "scoop" the mixture into 10 even rounds on the sheets (about the size of the top-half of the McDonalds hamburger bun; roughly 3/4 inch thick and 4 to 5 inches across).
  • Place cookie sheet the middle rack and set timer for 20 minutes. Now you will need to watch them, because the cooking time may vary on any two batches. Basically, you want them to bake until they become nice and golden brown color (the color of a McDonalds bun).
  • Remove from the pans and cool on a wire rack.

LOW-CARB BUNS

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Time 40m

Yield 4 buns

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups almond flour, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella
2 ounces cream cheese
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Sift the almond flour, baking powder, paprika, onion powder and salt into a large microwave-safe bowl. Add the mozzarella and cream cheese and use your fingers to evenly distribute the cheeses. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Knead the mixture with your hands or stir with a rubber spatula briefly. Microwave again until the cheeses are melted and the dough looks smooth, 15 to 30 seconds more. Let stand until cool enough to handle, just a few minutes.
  • Add all but 1 teaspoon of the egg to the dough and knead with your hands to incorporate. Sprinkle the dough with extra almond flour if it looks too sticky.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Moisten your hands and form each piece into a slightly domed patty about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet, brush the tops lightly with the remaining egg and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
  • Bake until light golden brown all over, 12 to 16 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then carefully slice through the middles with a serrated knife.

Tips

  • Use almond flour and coconut flour: These two flours are low in carbs and high in fiber, making them a great choice for keto-friendly hamburger buns.
  • Add psyllium husk powder: This ingredient helps to bind the ingredients together and give the buns a chewy texture.
  • Use a sugar-free sweetener: To add a touch of sweetness to the buns without adding carbs, use a sugar-free sweetener like stevia or erythritol.
  • Let the dough rest before baking: This allows the dough to rise and develop a more flavorful taste.
  • Bake the buns at a high temperature: This helps to create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.

Conclusion

These zero-carb hamburger buns are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional buns. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed on any keto-friendly diet. With their low carb count and high fiber content, these buns are a great way to satisfy your burger cravings without sacrificing your health goals.
