Best Dairy Free Ketogenic Slider Buns

dairy free keto slider buns

Following a low carb, ketogenic diet can sometimes feel limiting because grains and gluten are big “no no’s”. So the other day when my husband said he had a craving for a sandwich, I was like all in a panic. “But we can’t have bread.” We tried a few ideas I saw on Pinterest and such, but none of these lettuce wraps, meat wraps, or egg tortillas satisfied that “bready” need. They all tasted great, but it was still nothing like bread. So through much trial and error, I present my husband approved recipe for my dairy free keto slider buns. 

First you need to preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Then gather up all your healthy ingredients. Using an immersion blender makes this so quick and easy to clean up. Add the psyllium husk and water together into your container and pulse a few times until it forms a thick gel like substance. No worries, it’s supposed to look like that – I know this is looking weird and not “bready” at all, but trust me. It will be worth it!

Next add in your eggs, sea salt, baking soda, avocado oil and mayonnaise. If you need, you can make my Quick and Easy Homemade Mayonnaise. Now you know why I make so much mayonnaise; I literally use it for everything! Blend away until everything is incorporated.

Now add your almond flour slowly one third at a time, blending in between. Add in your apple cider vinegar last. Make sure there are no big lumps and the batter is blended, it will still look a little bit grainy, but that is ok.Once your batter is all ready, get out your scoop. If you don’t have one I would highly recommend it, because it makes it so much easier for portion control. The one I linked to on Amazon is the one I use. You can also go to local restaurant suppliers and pick up one for a lot less, though you lose the convenience of having it sent to you. Just make sure you get the size 20 (yellow) which holds 1 – 5/8 ounce. keto slider buns

Place your jumbo muffin silicon baking tray on a baking sheet. ( If you don’t do this, once you put the batter in, it will be hard to put in the oven) Portion out your slider batter into the muffin cups. This should be the exact amount of batter for 6 slider rolls, if you use the portion scoop. Place in the oven for 22 minutes. You can leave them in a few minutes longer if you like a crispier crust.Once you take your slider buns out of the oven, let them cool before you take them out of your silicon tray. Now all thats left is for you to slice, toast, and enjoy! You can also make these in bulk and freeze them. Make sure to slice before you ice. Please let me know if you try these slider buns and how it turns out for you.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we have; it was a labor of love.ketogenic sandwich

      Hi Cheryl, I haven’t had a chance to calculate the nutritional values yet, but it is in the works. I promise! I am having surgery tomorrow and as soon as I am on the road to recovery and have enough mobility in my arm, I will start working on it. I want to have all the nutritional values calculated and posted for everyone of my recipes _ just so little time and so much to do.

        Can you use coconut oil instead of avocado oil?

          Yes Barb, you can. I just prefer avocado because of its neutral flavor profile. Coconut oil is just as good and if you don’t like the strong coconut flavor, you can also try refined coconut oil. Let me know how it turns out.

    I can’t wait to try these! I’m new to eating Keto/Dairy-free per my doctor and am missing bread like crazy! lol. Is there a version to turn these into a loaf or would that change the consistency? I too send you love and healing vibes! You WILL make it! You’re on the right track, and with your positive energy, the cancer has no choice but to find somewhere else to live. xoxoxo

      Thank you so much for your healing energy. Love it!!! I did try making them bigger but I was not happy with the way it baked up. You could experiment with it and let me know how it goes. I was happy with them being this size because I find they are very filling and I would probably be too full if they were any bigger, but that is probably because I have been fat adapted for so long that I no longer have cravings or a large appetite. When you are starting out, I would probably wait before trying these out and just stay super simple until you are firmly into ketosis. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

    These look so spongy and yum! Love the addition of avocado oil. I have never heard of psyllium husk, will need to keep an eye out for it at the health food store.

      Psyllium husk is great for adding fiber and bulk, which is much needed on a low carb/keto diet.

    These look SO insanely fluffy I can’t quite believe it! I will have to try baking with mayo, I’ve never done that before!

      Monique, I use mayo often in my recipes when I don’t want to include dairy. I find it makes a great substitute when you need to add yogurt or cream cheese to a recipe, but you are dairy intolerant

    Do you mean psyllium husk powder? Or whole psyllium husks? Thanks.

      I use a ground psyllium husk. I think its powdered.

    Made these with refined coconut oil and they were AMAZING! Finally a Keto bread that isn’t eggy! Do you think this recipe would work using a loaf pan vs a muffin pan?

    Reply
    • yvonne

      May 10, 2018 at 5:48 pm

      Tara, thank you so much. I also struggle with those eggy breads, which is why I knew I had to figure out an alternative. I have never tried it in a loaf pan, but I am interested on how if it would work. My concern is that the batter would not rise sufficiently and cook all the way through. You would also have to adjust the bake time. Please let me know if you do decide to try it out in a loaf pan and let me know if it turns out.
