🧾 Ingredients for Keto Buns

These gluten-free, grain-free buns combine almond flour, coconut flour, and psyllium husk for that perfect bread-like texture — without the carbs.

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
  • 1/4 cup psyllium husk powder
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sour cream (or full-fat Greek yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)

👨‍🍳 How to Make Keto Buns – Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together:

  • Almond flour
  • Coconut flour
  • Flaxseed meal
  • Psyllium husk powder
  • Baking powder
  • Salt

3. Mix Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then mix in:

  • Melted butter
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Warm water
  • Apple cider vinegar

4. Combine Wet & Dry

Gradually stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until a dough forms. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes. The psyllium husk will absorb moisture and thicken the dough.

5. Shape Your Buns

Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Shape into round buns and place them on your baking sheet. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for a classic bakery-style finish.

6. Bake

Bake in the oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

7. Cool & Enjoy

Allow your keto buns to cool on a wire rack for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
