🥩 Zero Carb Carnivore Bread – High-Protein Fluffy Buns 🍖
Introduction
These Zero Carb Carnivore Buns are a game-changer for anyone following a carnivore or keto diet. Made entirely from animal-based ingredients, they’re high in protein, low in carbs, and fluffy, perfect for sandwiches, burgers, or breakfast. Unlike traditional bread, these buns rely on eggs and cheeses for structure and moisture, resulting in a tender yet sturdy texture. No flour, no yeast, and absolutely zero carbs — but all the satisfaction of a classic bun.
Ingredients (Makes 2–3 Buns)
- 4 large eggs
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (optional, for extra fluff)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Optional: herbs like chives, garlic powder, or paprika for flavor
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease small silicone molds for buns. - Mix the Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Add softened cream cheese and shredded mozzarella. Mix until smooth and well combined. Stir in baking powder and salt, and any optional herbs or spices. - Shape the Buns:
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, portion the batter onto the prepared tray or molds, shaping into small bun-sized rounds. - Bake:
Bake for 15–20 minutes, until the buns are golden on top and firm to the touch. If you’re using silicone molds, they may require an extra 2–3 minutes. - Cool:
Let the buns cool for 5 minutes before serving. This helps them set and makes them easier to slice. - Serve:
Enjoy warm or at room temperature. Slice for sandwiches, burgers, or pair with butter, cheese, or deli meats for a carnivore-friendly meal.
Tips & Variations
- Extra Fluffy: Separate the egg whites and yolks. Beat the whites to stiff peaks, fold in the yolk mixture, and bake — this creates a loftier texture.
- Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or toaster oven.
- Flavor Boost: Add smoked paprika, garlic powder, or finely chopped bacon for a savory twist.
These buns are perfect for anyone who wants bread-like satisfaction without carbs while sticking to a high-protein, carnivore-friendly lifestyle.
