Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Salted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- 4 Romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
- 4 Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 4 tablespoons Sugar-free ketchup
- 8 Pickle slices
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a bowl, combine the coconut flour and baking powder. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, and melted butter until smooth.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until well combined. Let the batter sit for a few minutes to thicken.
Portion the batter into four equal parts and shape each into a round bun on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each bun for garnish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the buns are golden and firm to the touch.
While the buns are baking, season the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well and shape into four equal patties.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover briefly to melt the cheese.
Once the buns are done, let them cool slightly, then slice them in half horizontally.
Assemble the burgers: spread mayonnaise and ketchup on the bottom half of each bun, add a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice, a cheeseburger patty, two pickle slices, and finally the top bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb classic hamburger with bun!
