🧾 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.
