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.

Hi! Just wondering if you think that Almond milk would work with this recipe in place of the coconut milk?

Yes, Gary, almond milk works.
Kay-M says
I make 6x the recipe, and bake them in my muffin-top pan - works great!!!

Thank you, Kay, for trying the recipe and sharing your muffin top pan tip. I need to get that pan!
Cameron says
I'm allergic to coconut flour. Is there a substitute for coconut flour?
Stacey says
Hi Cameron, if you can have almond flour then you can replace the coconut four with 1 1/2 tbsp almond four.

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!!!!
Stacey says
Thank you so much, Shannon, for trying the recipe and sharing your ideas 🙂
Carla Canipe says
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 🙂
Stacey says
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).
Carla Canipe says
Thanks for your suggestion. I am making these buns for Low Carb Chicken Parmasean sandwiches tonight.
Stacey says
Your welcome Carla. That sounds so good!

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?

Allyson says
Awesome recipe...loved them! Should these be refrigerated if not eaten right away or making big batches?
Stacey says
Yes Allyson, all the grain free breads should be stored in the fridge, as there are no preservatives to keep them from perishing.
