    Soft & Chewy Keto Buns

    These soft and fluffy keto buns are made with psyllium husk powder and almond flour and taste just like multigrain bread. I offer 8 different flavor variations you can easily make all while using the same base recipe. This has to be the best low-carb buns recipe with almond flour!

    Originally published in 2016, I've updated this recipe with better instructions and pictures.

    Keto buns used as a sandwich stuffed with a runny egg, tomatoes and spinach.

    Experimenting with psyllium husk has proved to be quite beneficial in my low carb recipes. Because of it, I've been able to make keto bagels, low carb tortillas , coconut flour tortillas, low carb pizza crust, keto tiramisu and even low carb chocolate cake!

    What is Psyllium Husk?

    Psyllium husk is a form of fiber made from the husks of the Plantago plant's seeds and it's most commonly known and used as a laxative. However, it's become quite popular in low-carb baking and cooking as it acts exactly the way gluten does, as glue.

    If you've ever tried baking a low-carb recipe, you'll notice that baked goods don't always hold together and can fall apart quite easily.  By adding a bit of psyllium husk to these recipes, it helps the batter stick together where you can form any shape you want. There are psyllium husk powder substitutes but they don't work as well. I prefer psyllium for baking, especially for keto bread recipes.

    Types of Psyllium

    • Whole Husks
      • These are husks that haven't been ground into a fine powder.
    • Psyllium Husk Powder
      • Whole husks ground into a very fine powder.
    • Homemade Psyllium Husk Powder
      • This is just whole husks that have been crushed into a powder using a strong blender.
    3 different types of psyllium husks in 3 different bowls.
    This shows the difference between store-bought psyllium husk powder, psyllium whole husks and homemade psyllium husk powder.

    Great Psyllium Husk Uses

    The greatest thing about psyllium husk powder is that it can also be used to thicken sauces, gravy-like my keto gravy or soups.  If you do add too much, however, it does have a gelatinous feeling to it so you have to be careful with the amount you add in.

    Psyllium used in cooked foods needs to be mixed with enough fluid so that the husk can absorb and bulk up, reducing the risk of constipation.

    When baking with it, most recipes will call for eggs or egg whites and hot water.  The hot water helps the psyllium activate and activates its 'glue' properties.

    You'll notice that in all of my recipes where I use psyllium husk powder, I add hot water and lots of eggs.  I find that by adding both ingredients, it helps double the recipe in size and also makes everything stick together without falling apart.

    You'll definitely want to check out these low carb psyllium husk recipes where you can decide what kind of recipes you'd like to try with it.

    Ingredients🥘

    These low carb rolls are honestly so EASY to make as you only need to mix and bake. However, you do need to pay attention to the ingredients and make sure to follow the steps exactly to ensure the perfect buns! Also, use a scale!! A scale gives the most accurate results and will give you perfect dinner rolls every time!

    These buns are gluten free and dairy free so are very accommodating to various diets. You can use them for sandwiches, for toasts, for pulled pork, for burgers or even sloppy joes.

    Ingredients for low carbs in small white bowls.
    These are the ingredients that you will use to make these keto buns.

    Almond Flour: You'll want to use fine blanched almond flour for this recipe. If you can't eat nuts, simply use sunflower seed flour, it's a 1-1 replacement.

    Psyllium Husk Powder: This is absolutely necessary. These are psyllium buns and the buns will not work without the psyllium. For this recipe we're using the powdered psyllium for best results. I've tried making it with whole husks and the bread is easier to handle with the powder kind and turns out prettier.

    If you only have whole husks, make sure to grind it in a blender before using for a good 30 seconds on high power. If you don't want to grind them, you'll need to use about 3-4 tablespoons of whole husks to achieve the same consistency instead of the 2 tablespoons of powdered psyllium.

    Eggs: We'll be using whole eggs for this recipe to keep things simple. I recommend using room temperature eggs because the coconut oil tends to solidify when touched by cold eggs.

    Boiling Water: Not warm, not cold, we need boiling water for this recipe. The water helps the psyllium activate.

    Refined Coconut Oil: Use refined and not extra-virgin coconut oil if you don't want a coconut taste in your buns.

    How to Make Low Carb Buns🍞

    To make these ultimate buns, you'll first want to mix the dry ingredients together and then add the wet ingredients on top including the hot water.

    Mix together and the batter should start to thicken up. It'll be a little bit watery the first few seconds, but you'll see that the more time passes by the thicker the dough gets.

    Steps showing how to make low carb buns.

    Let it sit for about 1 minute and then it's ready to roll. The dough should be very easy to grab and should stick together. Oil your hands before making a roll as it helps the dough not stick to your hands.

    Pro Tip💭 : Oil your hands before touching the dough. This will prevent the dough from sticking to your hands.

    I personally measure the dough and separate into 5 equal portions. In this case my dough measured about 350 grams so each bun weight 70g.

    Images showing how to shape low carb buns.

    By making this recipe, you should be able to make five low carb buns. Feel free to make more or less. For hamburger buns, I usually separate the dough into 4.

    Once the low carb buns are formed, pop them into the oven for a good 25 minutes and they are ready to eat! How simple was that?

    Flavor Variations📖

    My favorite part about this recipe is that it's super easy to customize into different flavored breads. The base recipe is the same for all breads, but each version have a unique flavor to them.

    8 different variations of keto bread made with the same base recipe.
    8 different variations of my keto bread. Everything Seasoning & Cream Cheese, Maple Walnut, Multi-seed, Cinnamon Roll, Cheddar Rosemary, Olive, Azuki, Plain

    Base Recipe: 1 cup (120g) almond flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp psyllium husk powder, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 3 tbsp refined coconut oil and 3 tbsp boiling water.

    • Multi-Seed
      • Add 1 tsp white sesame seeds, 1 tsp black sesame seeds, 1 tsp chia seeds, 2 tsp sunflower seeds, 2 tsp pumpkin seeds, ½ tsp salt and ½ tsp garlic powder.
    • Cheddar Rosemary
      • Add ½ cup (60g) cheddar, 1 tsp rosemary, ½ tsp salt, 1 tsp roasted garlic and onion.
    • Plain
      • Add ½ tsp roasted garlic and onion and ½ tsp salt. Dip each low carb roll into sesame seeds. These could also be used as keto hamburger buns. Just use 2 tbsp of water for this recipe.
    • Cinnamon Roll
      • Add 2 tbsp keto sweetener, ½ tsp cinnamon and ¼ tsp stevia powder. Stuff each bun with 1 tbsp of cream cheese.
    • Maple Walnut
      • Add 2 tbsp (20g) chopped walnuts, ¼ tsp cinnamon, ¼ tsp stevia powder and 1 tsp maple flavoring.
    • Everything but the Bagel
      • Add 1 tbsp of everything but the bagel seasoning and stuff each bun with 2 tbsp cream cheese. Dip in everything bagel seasoning.
    • Olive
      • Add 15 chopped olives, 1 tsp rosemary, ½ tsp salt, 1 tsp roasted garlic and onion. Use olive oil instead of coconut oil.
    • Azuki Beans
      • Make this bread Japanese by stuffing each bread with 2 tablespoons of ketofied Japanese sweetened red beans. Add 2 tbsp erythritol and ¼ tsp of stevia powder to the batter.

    I've also made hamburger buns 🍔 before with this recipe and made a crispy chicken sandwich that looked like it was from Burger King, and it was absolutely amazing. Have fun with it and create whatever shape and flavor you're craving.

    It's also a great side bread to have when eating some low carb soups like my cream of cauliflower soup or my low carb zuppa toscana soup.

    A bacon cheeseburger served on some low carb buns.
    For these burgers, I separated the dough into 4 and dipped each bun into sesame seeds.

    Troubleshooting Tips

    My buns turned purple.

    Some brands of psyllium husk turn purple, whether you buy whole husks or powdered husks. There's nothing you can do about the purple color, but the taste and texture is absolutely the same so don't worry about it!

    I recommend using NOW psyllium husk powder as that's what I've always had success using.

    My buns didn't rise.

    Make sure you're using fresh baking powder, that you didn't forget it, and that you didn't let your dough sit out too long.

    My batter is too wet.

    Did you use 120g of almond flour exactly or did you just scoop a cup out? Make sure to use a kitchen scale to make sure the flour amount is exactly the amount needed. Also let the batter sit for 1 minute, the psyllium will work its magic and thicken everything up. Also make sure to use the powder and not the whole husks as they work a bit differently.

    My buns are hard as rock.

    Did you add the psyllium? You cannot substitute the psyllium husk powder.  This recipe will not work without it.

    The dough is too sticky to work with.

    Spray both of your hands with some oil, it will help keep the dough from sticking to your hands.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long do these keep?

    They will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days and up to 3 months in the freezer. I don't recommend leaving them out at room temperature, especially in summer, as they can go bad faster.

    How do I thaw the frozen bread?

    If you decide to freeze them, simply thaw the buns on the counter for about 3 hours or 4-5 hours in the fridge until soft and ready to use.

    What can I use instead of coconut oil?

    You can use any type of oil that you want, but extra-virgin tends to really taste like coconut which is why I recommend using refined coconut oil. Feel free to use avocado oil, olive oil, butter or ghee.

    Do you need to add the seeds?

    No, you do not need to. Read above to see the 8 different kinds of breads you can make with the dough.

    Why are my buns purple?

    Depending on the brand of husk you use, some buns turn purple. They have the same texture and same taste and are perfectly fine to eat. I've personally have never experience purple buns with whatever brand I have used though.

    What are possible ingredient substitutions?

    Substitute almond flour for sunflower seed flour in the same amount.
    Substitute coconut oil for olive oil, avocado oil, butter or ghee.
    Substitute apple cider vinegar for lemon juice, white vinegar.

    Can I make a loaf instead?

    Yes you can! Double the recipe and cook it at 180C/350F for 45-50 minutes!

    Can I make keto burger buns instead?

    Yes, of course. I usually make 4 buns instead of 5, use the plain recipe and top with white sesame seeds for some good burger buns!

    Can I make them egg free?

    I have not tried and haven't seen a comment either that says they've tried so am not sure!

    Can I make them with whole husks instead?

    You can, but the dough is a little bit harder to handle. Use 3-4 tbsp of whole husks instead of 2 tbsp of powdered husks.

    Ingredients

    • 3 tbsp (45 ml) boiling water

    Dry Ingredients

    • 1 cup (120 g) blanched almond flour
    • 2 tbsp (20 g) psyllium husk powder
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1 tsp black sesame seeds
    • 1 tsp white sesame seeds
    • 2 tsp sunflower seeds
    • 1 tsp black chia seeds
    • ½ tsp Himalayan salt
    • ½ tsp garlic powder

    Wet Ingredients

    • 2 eggs
    • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice, white vinegar)
    • 3 tbsp (45 ml) melted refined coconut oil (or butter, lard, shortening, ghee)

    Instructions

    • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
    • In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients with a whisk. In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a silicone spatula.
    • Slowly pour in the boiling water and continue mixing. The dough will thicken up as time passes by (about 1 minute).
    • Separate the dough into 5 and form 5 balls with your hands (the batter is pretty sticky). You can spray some olive oil on your hands to make the dough not stick to you. Just roll the dough onto the palm of your hands to achieve perfect little balls.
    • Place the balls over a parchment paper on a baking tray and bake for 25 minutes. Take out and let cool before serving or you'll burn your fingers! These come out piping hot!

    Notes

    1. You cannot substitute the psyllium husk powder.
    2. Please don't leave out the boiling water. You need it to activate the psyllium.
    3. Make sure to use REFINED coconut oil and not the normal extra-virgin kind as you'll get a huge coconut taste.
    4. If you double the recipe, you may need to add 1-2 tbsp of hot water to the batter.
    5. All of our ovens are different, so if you find yours to be too moist, just add 5 more minutes in the oven, or cook them at 190C/375F instead for 30 minutes.

      This is my second or maybe 3rd comment on for some reason I haven't gotten a response. I made this buns and they were delicious, fluffy, tasty and pillowy. I'm a vegan and I told that it would be good for people that do not eat any animal products to know that I made them with flaxseed eggs: 1 tbsp of flax seed powder with three tablespoons of water for one egg. I have a question, and I would love for someone to tell me if it's possible to make these buns a little bigger so I can use them for vegan burgers. I made 4 instead of five buns, I need it actually two larger buns but I didn't know the baking time so I didn't want to risk it however they were delicious and I will keep making them.

      The best low carb rolls I have ever made and so easy. I'll try cooking a loaf with this recipe another time. For the five rolls, I used a layer of greasproof paper in my air fryer set and preheated at 185C (mine seems to need the heat to be increasd), for15 mins, then flipped them over for the last 10 mins.

        Hi Kat, I mention it in the post.
        If you only have whole husks, make sure to grind it in a blender before using for a good 30 seconds on high power. If you don't want to grind them, you'll need to use about 3-4 tablespoons of whole husks to achieve the same consistency instead of the 2 tablespoons of powdered psyllium.
        You want 20g total.
        Hope that helps!

      I'm in shock and awe over how GOOD these buns are. They are soft and pillowy on the inside and I can't believe I was able to make healthier bread with these delicious and more nutrient-dense ingredients. I'll never buy those pathetically tiny store-bought keto loaves again. This is my go-to bread recipe from now on!

      I made them this morning to complement my OMAD lunch. OMG ... it was heaven. I added 3 tbsp of different seeds and made 4 buns that I slightly flattened. Just high enough to slice in the middle.
      They gonna become a stable in our house.

      This recipe is amazing! I have insulin resistance that I am trying to correct through diet and intermittent fasting, and it has been such a treat to have some bread to look forward to each day.

      Quick question: I made a double recipe and accidentally left them out for 11 hours (facepalm). Do you think they are okay or should I toss them? Thank you!

        Before they were cooked? Then yes toss them, the dough won't be good anymore. If after they were cooked, then they're fine.

      Can I use just the “Basic Recipe” ingredients, or do I need to choose one of the variations (e.g. “Plain” if I want the most basic bun)? A bit confused with the recipe instructions here.

      Also would you recommend plain olive oil to extra virgin olive oil (like you do for coconut oil)?

      Thanks!

        Yes, the dough will just be less sweet! You can use liquid stevia too.

      Delicious and so light!
      These are definitely my best rolls I have ever made.

      I just made these after endless recipes of almond flour bread. These are by far the best! Great texture, great smell in the house, I really felt like I'm eating bread! After 6 months of pregnancy with diabetes, this is such a find! I inhaled two with butter straight out of the oven!
      Have you ever tried these with shredded cheese? I feel like it could be like cheese biscuits 🙂

      Completely happy with this recipe! I made them according to the recipe, only adding a little xanthan gum (because I just always do to keto recipes haha). I shaped mine into rectangles and cut them in half and toasted them to make little sandwiches. Excellent flavor and texture!!

      I made these today and forgot to add the hot water so after I had rolled them and before I put them into the oven I sprinkled hot water on each (I know not correct BUT it worked) and they came out delicious!

      Of course I will do it the right way next time by adding the hot water in the mix but seriously these are delicious ! and my home smells delicious - Thank you so much!

      These are really good! Taste great and look great too, and wonderful texture. I made the recipe into 4 buns rather than 5 because I wanted them to fit the burgers I was making and it worked great. I just had to bake them a few extra minutes. I also subbed the seeds with Everything Bagels mix. This is the 2nd recipe from your website that I’ve made, the other being tortillas which are also very good. Two new favorite recipes at our house!!

      Really nice buns!haha (Paddington 2 pun). I’ve made them many times. My absolute favorite keto bread recipe. I was starting to feel a bit “hangry” and didn’t want to wait for my oven, so I threw these in my dash waffle maker. They turned out absolutely perfect! I just had to share. Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes. Keep em comin! 😄

      Do you use psyllium husk or psyllium powder or self-grind psyllium husk?

      By far and away the most authentic “bread” recipe I have made. Thank you so much, I have been craving a sandwich and now I can indulge myself. Our scrambled eggs for breakfast are now perfect with the psyllium husk buns toasted and they also mean we can once more enjoy a boiled egg. A very clever recipe that looks and tastes like bread. I bet it would also make a nutritious pizza base. Thanks again. Wendy

        Hi! Was wondering if I could leave out the seeds. Have digestive issues and seeds are not agreeable for me. Thanks!

          Hi Diane, you can just follow any of the flavour variation recipes in the recipe card, there's 5 that doesn't include seeds.

      I have to say I was shocked at how tasty these are! Mine did turn purplish tho so I'll try a different brand of psyllium next time. I used an ice cream scoop to dispense onto cookie sheet. Worked great! I ended up with 6 rolls. Hubby enjoyed them too.

      I am interested in low carb but am not keto and would like to lower the fat a bit. Would these work with 2 TBS less fat and increased boiling water?

      These were really good!! Mine didn’t come out like the picture but I used 2 eggs instead of 1 whole plus 2 whites bc I can never remember to use the yolks later but they were really good!! I like also that they don’t use any dairy, huge plus. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

      I love this recipe and in addition to rolls have used the dough to make 6” garlic bread sticks, tortillas and pizza crust. I’ve also made hot pockets stuffed with meat & veggies and spirals stuffed with paleo spinach artichoke dip. I love how quickly the dough firms up to divide and shape. To save time I just use Trader Joe’s Everything But Bagel seasoning instead of measuring individual seeds but just be careful bc it gets saltier toward the bottom of the bottle. Thanks so much for sharing this great low carb recipe!

      Our buns turned a dark grey color in the oven. Any ideas why that would be?

        Hi Jessica, depending on the brand of psyllium you use, they turn grey or purple. Same taste or texture though!
