Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Mix eggs and olive oil in a bowl. Add remaining ingredients for the bun and mix into a smooth batter.
  3. Pour batter into well-greased muffin pan or silicone baking cups, at least 212 inches (5 cm) in diameter.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the bread is baked through and golden in color. Allow to cool and slice in half.
  5. Mini patties

  6. Combine all ingredients for mini patties.
  7. Shape two small flat patties per serving. Brush oil on both sides and place on a baking sheet.
  8. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until patties are done. You can also fry or grill them.
  9. Serve with buns, a dollop of sour cream, and sliced jalapeños.

Tip!

The basic recipe with four eggs makes eight small buns. Feel free to make a bigger batch and freeze the leftovers. Defrosted buns taste great, especially if you toast them.

    Hi, the meal is 4 servings so does that mean only one slider to eat at 6g of carbs? Sorry I know its a silly question.
  2. MTM
    I want to know the same thing. All that work...just one slider?? Uhhh. Nope! Hope it is more per serving.
  3. Yamel
    4 servings should yield 8 sliders. Therefore 2 sliders per serving

    Are the buns mentioned here really spongy or eggy?

    I just made these and they were a little spongy and a little eggy, but overall they are great. I will make these a lot in the future.

    I do not see the bun in the ingredients?

    The buns are the first group of ingredients, and steps 1-4 in the instructions.

    Made the burger patties tonight. Went down a treat. Next time I’ll use 1/2 tsp salt. 1 tsp is a bit to salty.
