Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 200 g before cooking, which is about 100 g per serving.
Steps
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350 °F) (350°F (180 °C)) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate the eggs, placing the whites in a large bowl and reserving the yolks in another container.
Add salt and pepper to the egg whites.
Beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks and have a 'firm cloud' consistency.
Lightly whisk the reserved egg yolks.
On the baking sheet, create four circular shapes using part of the beaten yolks to form the base of the buns.
Carefully place the whipped egg white mixture on top of the yolk bases, shaping them like burger buns.
Brush the remaining egg yolks over the top of the whites for color.
Bake at 175°C (350 °F) for 15 minutes until golden brown and firm.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and assemble with your favorite burger ingredients.
Notes
This recipe makes 4 bun halves (2 complete burgers). They are naturally gluten-free and carb-free. Ensure the bowl for the whites is completely clean and grease-free so they whip up correctly.
