These are a delightful Keto Burger Buns that will hold up to your juicy burgers. They contain yeast and are not "eggy" like a lot of low carb breads. These are better if you let them "rest" and cool a little before using. They have a gorgeous flavor that will make you forget they are low carb.
In a medium bowl, stir together the warm water and sugar. Stir in the yeast and set aside for 10 minutes. It should start bubbling and double in size.
Meanwhile, place the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum whisk together.
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Heat in the microwave until melted. Stir until smooth.
Add the cheese, eggs and yeast to the bowl and mix with oiled hands or in a food processor until it is uniform. The dough will be sticky.
Form 4 buns with oiled or gloved hands and place on parchment covered baking sheet.
Brush buns with an egg wash if desired and sprinkle with seeds if using. This is an OPTIONAL step and not necessary for taste. It does make a prettier presentation though.
Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
Let cool before slicing for best results. Toast if desired.
Notes
These are not "everyday" buns. They are for when you really want a "steakhouse" type of burger.The calorie count is high but they are fan-freaking-tastic.If you worry about calories than feel free to make the buns smaller...they will still be delectable. Most Keto Dieters eat less often so these fit in nicely with most peoples macros.
