Instructions
To make the buns:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Combine the coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk the eggs, coconut oil, sesame oil, vinegar, and 3 oz (88ml) of water together.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and fold in to combine.
- Divide into two portions and shape each portion into a burger bun shape (keeping in mind you will cut it in half once done).
- Place the bun onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush a little sesame oil on the top of the buns and scatter over the sesame seeds.
- Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes. Remove and set aside.
To make the patties:
- Combine the ground beef with the garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Divide into two portions and shape each portion into a burger patty shape.
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed, non-stick pan and fry the patties over moderate heat until cooked through, flipping them over occasionally to create a golden-brown crust.
- Build the burgers by slicing the sesame bun in half and adding your favorite toppings.
