Look no further for the best paleo hamburger buns – they’re here! After lots of testing this recipe hits all the right points – soft chewy texture inside, crusty outside and bendable so you can pack in lots of burger toppings and actually pick it up and take a bite. Gluten free, grain free, family approved, made all in one bowl and super easy!
Just in time for summer grilling, we have one-bowl paleo hamburger buns that are about to rock your world!
And they’re not just for grilling season. Nope, you’ll want to make these year round for the burgers and hearty sandwiches that we miss just a little bit (or a lot!) when avoiding grains.
These grain free hamburger buns take about 30 minutes from start to finish and are easy to whip up even if you’re in a rush. No dough chilling, no stand mixer or hand mixer. Just a big bowl and a spoon to mix!
The result is a deliciously crust outside with a soft and chewy inside. Yes – they are more dense than regular hamburger buns!
But you still get the right amount of “fluff” and “chew”. Plus, there are no odd flavors here – leaving your burger the star of the how as it should be.
What You Need to Make Paleo Hamburger Buns
If you’re already familiar with paleo baking, all the ingredients will most likely be in your pantry and fridge already. Here’s what you’ll need to prepare the buns:
blanched almond flourtapioca flour golden flaxseed meal baking powderbaking sodafine sea salt avocado oil or melted refined coconut oilwarm waterapple cider vinegarraw honey eggsSesame seeds, for garnish
How to Make Paleo Hamburger Buns
Preheat your oven to 350° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca, flaxseed meal, baking powder and baking soda and salt.
In a measuring cup, combine the oil, water, vinegar, and honey. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour this mixture into the well, then stir. Add the eggs one at a time until well combined and a thick batter/sticky dough forms.
Using a large scoop or spoon, (about 1/4-1/3 cup) scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet about 2” apart to make about 8 hamburger buns. Whisk together the egg white and water in a small bowl and brush over the tops, then sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 17-20 minutes or until set and light golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the buns to cool to almost room temperature before carefully slicing.
How to Store Paleo Hamburger Buns:
If you’re not planning to serve the buns right away, you have options! You can store them fo up to a day loosely covered at room temperature, or freeze them for later use.
If you’re freezing them, thaw in the refrigerator, slice, and gently reheat in a toaster oven to serve after freezing.
Admittedly these are definitely better fresh, but it’s also definitely not a deal breaker if you make them ahead of time.
I froze all of the remaining buns after taking photos of them and they held up well after thawing and reheating.
Let’s get ready for burgers! Bake the buns and then grab all the best toppings (burger recipe to follow soon!) I hope you enjoy!
