Quick Low Carb Buns-
Easy to make, grain free, quick low carb buns that are also keto, gluten-free and paleo.
Quick Low Carb Buns are a fast and easy way to make burger buns, sandwich buns, or toast. The recipe is for one, but can be doubled for 2 buns, or quadrupled for 4 buns in a large mixing bowl and poured into 2 to 4 ramekins (small bowls). I like to make these for burgers, sandwiches, and even grilled cheese.
These quick low carb buns are sturdy enough for even a big thick burger and can be toasted in a toaster, or broiled in the boiler. Extremely low in net carbs and high in fiber.
Perfect for making mini personal pizzas, and even the ever-popular avocado toast!

To just tried this and it was very good. I couldn’t find the measuring spoons so I just guessed. They came out fine . So easy and quick.
Thank you, Jean, you’re one of those people that are very good at just eyeballing the measurements.
This was great! Quick and easy and works perfectly with a burger. Thank you!
Thank you, Amina, so much for trying it.
This bread is awesome, not eggy at at. I made it into a hot dog buns by using a mini loaf pan and it’s the best I’ve tried and I’ve tried many. Pretty sure this is”the one” thanks so much!!!!
Thank you so much, Shannon, for trying the recipe and sharing your ideas 🙂
I made these today. Even though I used my knife to scrape around the sides, they stuck to the bottom of the bowl. Did I do something wrong? Looking forward to having burgers tonight, but the one may be open faced 🙂
Hi Carla, Sometimes if I wait until they are cooled off and then slide knife around and gently under it and lift slightly then it does not stick. They stick more when warm (not sure why that is).
Thanks for your suggestion. I am making these buns for Low Carb Chicken Parmasean sandwiches tonight.
Your welcome Carla. That sounds so good!
I just had one of these buns for my lunch. I put turkey,lettuce & cheese. It was very good. I will make them again.
Thank you for trying the recipe, Catherine 🙂
These look great and I want to make some right now! I have everything in my cupboard except the flax meal. Would they be okay without it or is there something I can substitute?
Amy, You could replace the flax meal with 2 tbsp almond flour if desired.
These look fantastic! Wow. Would love to try these.
Thank you Darryl 🙂
These look so good! I miss buns on my burgers. Can’t wait to try.
Me too Katja. Thanks
These are so easy to make and so practical for everyday use ! Thanks for sharing !
Thank you ChihYu 🙂
Awesome recipe…loved them! Should these be refrigerated if not eaten right away or making big batches?
Yes Allyson, all the grain free breads should be stored in the fridge, as there are no preservatives to keep them from perishing.
I haven’t had a hamburger bun in forever – these look so delish!
It is time to change that Kari 🙂
I bet this would be great for french toast also! Excited to try these out!
What a great idea Holley 🙂
I love how easy these are!! This is perfect for burgers or piling up lunch meats on. Yum xx
Thank you Irena 🙂
Wow those buns look good!! I’m amazed they are low carb and quick too!
Thank you s much Tina 🙂
My diet is pretty low carb right now, so I’m really excited to try these out!
Thank you Jean 🙂 Hope you enjoy them.
What a brilliant idea for those days when there is nothing green in the fridge (we all have them, right?!)
Yes we do, Donna. Thank you 🙂
Okay you totally had me at low carb! Definitely going to give these a go they look soooo good!
Thank you so much Georgie 🙂
I am totally going to try this, not only for the burgers we are going to have later this week but they also look like they’d be divine with an egg and some bacon (and sigh… cheese too, but alas I can’t do that).
Thanks, Michele 🙂 Awe cheese, I just can’t quit you!
Wow! That is so easy! I haven’t had a bun on a burger in so long and that looks so good!
Thank you Renee 🙂
These low carb buns look awesome! I haven’t had a bun on a burger in so long, I would love to devour one with these.
Thank you Emily! Sometimes I just get tired of the lettuce wraps 😉
