Burger Buns (Lectin-Free Dough)
Ingredients
1 lb Light Organic Baking Mix (approx. 2 cups)
2 packets active dry yeast
2 Tbsp allulose (sweetener)
2 large eggs
~3 1/2 cups sheep milk (or another lectin-free milk alternative)
1 Tbsp salt
Optional Glaze:
1 egg (for brushing)
Caraway or sesame seeds + flaked salt
Burger Filling
1 medium yellow onion (sliced into rings)
2 oz beef bacon or ham
2 oz young sheep cheese (like Pecorino or Gouda), sliced
2 Tbsp tallow, ghee, or sheep butter for optional frying of the onion and/or bacon
1 lb rich ground beef (choose a fattier blend for juicier patties)
Optional: lectin-free aioli/mayonnaise
Optional: a handful of low-oxalate lettuce leaves
Instructions
Making the Lectin-Free Buns
Whisk the Eggs: Whisk the eggs, allulose and some of the warm milk.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients
Combine & Knead: Add the beaten eggs and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Pour in the remaining sheep milk. Mix and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic. (Using a stand mixer with dough hook on medium for ~10 min is ideal.)
Portion Rolls: Divide the dough into ~12-14 pieces (about 100 g / ~3-4 oz each). Flatten each into a disk ~¾-inch thick.
Optional Glaze: Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle seeds or salt if desired.
Proof: Place dough on a baking sheet and let rest ~1 hour.
Bake: Preheat oven to ~390 °F (200 °C). Bake buns and burger patties together (see below) for ~20 minutes.
Preparing Patties & Toppings
Shape Patties: Divide the ground beef into 6 portions and form patties about ¾-inch thick.
Bake Patties & Buns: Place both buns and patties on baking sheets in the oven. After ~20 min, remove briefly.
Add Toppings: Top each patty with chopped bacon/ham, onion rings, and cheese slices. Return to oven and bake ~10 min more at ~350 °F (180 °C) until cheese melts and buns are golden.
Assemble Your Burgers
Slice buns in half.
Spread optional lectin-free mayo on bun bases.
Add cooked patty with cheese, bacon, and onions.
Top with lettuce leaves and bun tops.
Notes & Tips
Dough yields ~6–7 portions; extra dough can be used for other lectin-free breads.
Baking buns and patties together saves time and ensures even cooking.
Feel free to pan-fry onions first in tallow/ghee for sweeter flavor.
