This makes a wonderful hamburger bun, it tastes like a whole wheat bun. It's very sturdy and holds up well with all the juiciness of a hamburger with all the fixings.

1.4 Carb Hamburger Bun

2 tablespoons of melted butter-0
1/2 pinch of salt-0
1 extra large egg-.7
4 tablespoons of flaxseed meal-0
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.-.7

Mix together and put in the microwave and nuke for 1 minute or until center is set. Leave it in the bowl for another minute then turn it out on a cooling rack and let it cool.

Once it has cooled take a long bread knife and slice the bun in half and make your hamburger as usual.

I used a "grab-it" microwave bowl. It's just the right size to make a large hamburger bun.

Carb wise this should be induction legal, I just don't know if flaxseed meal is allowed on induction.

Great recipe. Thanks for sharing. I will be giving it a try soon.

I just wanted to give this recipe a big **THUMBS UP!!!** I've been making these 4 at a time and storing them in the fridge. They're dense and taste like a nice dark bread to me. Good toasted, too. I did sprinkle some onion powder in the mixture before cooking. YUM! :fork:

Thanks for the recipe!

I tried it with golden flaxseed meal but it did not turn out. Have to try the plain kind.

I tried this tonight. It tastes fine and holds together really well, too. I'll have to try it as toast next time.

I tried this today for my DD and myself and loved it. It was so nice to eat a hamburger holding it in my hands!

I used the golden flaxmeal and it turned out great. I had to nuke 1min20sec and used a little less butter. I would recommend this.

A friend of mine made this recipe and found it a but oily for her taste, she said she made it again and left out the butter and it turned out great.

I have some pulled pork in the oven for supper tonight, so I'll give it a try and see how I like it.

It was wonderful split and toasted, with natural peanut butter. A very filling snack.

Like Staci said..........."No weird ingredients!"

I made it, sliced it, buttered it and ate the whole think by itself before it could even cool off. Now, that's my idea of a Revolution Roll. I'm curious to hear how toasting one turns out.

And, like Kim said........... "How did I miss this recipe?" :great:

This is REALLY good! I made one this evening and most of my family tried a piece and everyone liked it. I'm going to make a few of these up to have on hand. And they are VERY filling.

Sounds wonderful! My burning question is what type of container did you use to make it? Round? How big? Betty, the "grab-it" container you mentioned . . . is that by Glad? What size, or is there only one available in the stores? My anality (is that a word?) is showing!

I made it in a small round corning ware container. It's about the size of a ex. large bun.
