Fluffy Keto Buns

These soft and pillowy Keto buns taste similar to whole wheat bread but with a fraction of the carbs! They are easy to make and work with both sweet and savoury toppings. The recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free.

Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites, medium room temperature
  • 1 egg, medium room temperature
  • ¼ cup / 60 ml hot water
  • ¼ cup / 25g almond flour
  • ¼ cup / 30g coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon Psyllium Husk Powder or 2 tablespoon whole psyllium husks
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of sea salt
  • sesame seeds, for sprinkling optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 356 Fahrenheit.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients. Then put all ingredients into a food processor or mix with an electric blender until smooth, about 20 seconds. Don't over-mix the dough. 
  3. Let the dough sit for a couple of minutes so the flours can absorb the moisture.  
  4. Separate the dough into 4 equal portions and form buns. (Wet hands before handling the dough. This way it's less sticky.)
  5. Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or seeds of choice. Make a criss-cross cut on the top and bake for around 25 minutes or until browned. 

Notes

  • 3g net carbs per bun.
  • It's always best to measure ingredients with a food scale.
  • I used medium eggs. For large eggs, increase the amount of almond flour by around 2 tablespoons (I have tested this).
  • If the batter is too liquid, add more almond and coconut flour until it is firm enough to roll into buns.  
  • If the buns are browned before the 25 minutes are up, cover them with aluminium foil to prevent them from burning.
  • If you want to double the recipe the oven time will increase (probably by around 5-10 minutes).
