Gluten-Free Homemade Hamburger Buns will have you making this recipe time and time again. Incredibly, this bread is the stuff dreams are made of. In fact, I am over the moon to be able to have bread once again. These buns are so tasty and perfect for hamburgers and sandwiches. Believe it or not, they don’t fall apart. 
Furthermore, this recipe uses a Whipped Cream Dispenser. In fact, it is a professional device that creates foam and whipped cream using pressure and gas. It is the homemaker’s aerosol whipping cream device. To tell the truth, I have had mine for over 20 years I may have even had it for over 25 I just can’t remember exactly. Anyway, I have used this device over the years to create whipped cream for Christmas desserts, birthday parties, and special events.
Inspiration For Gluten-Free Homemade Hamburger Buns:
Needless to say, imagine my surprise when I came across a recipe from Tyler Florence’s A Modern Burger Bun that uses an iSi whipped cream whipper. Not to mention that it is a yeastless bread. Hence, a lightbulb went off in my head. I thought I can make this grain-free. I can revamp this recipe and make it my own. So, thank you Tyler Florence for inspiring me to create this grain-free bun.
Furthermore, in Europe, most of the ingredients in a recipe are weighed as it gives an exact amount. So I stuck with the European method for this recipe. Granted the ISI Whipper is a piece of equipment is pricey. But if you already own one then you need to try this recipe.

Gluten-Free Homemade Hamburger Buns:
In all honesty, I tried not to get my hopes up when I decided to experiment and make these buns for myself. Cassava flour is not cheap not to mention I hate waste. Believe it or not, I sprayed my batter into quiche pans. In any case, it was a success. In summary, it looked like a batter. Next was to bake it. While it baked I held my breath. Would it turn out? My bread took longer than I thought to get browned. The next question on my mind was would they be easy to remove from the quiche pans? Spoiler alert they were super easy to remove.
The last step was to taste the Gluten-Free Hamburger Bun. They looked yummy and smelled yummy. However, I was super worried that while it looked good and smelled good it wouldn’t taste great. I mean have you had grain-free bread? Most grain-free bread’s that I have ever tried to leave you wishing you could wash your tongue off.
Most importantly, however, was that these buns were indeed tasty and definitely worth the time and energy to make. Consequently, I make batches of Gluten-Free Bun Sandwich Bread and freeze them for later use. Be sure to wrap them in parchment paper or wax paper and then place it into a freezer bag.
Remove from the plastic bag and parchment paper microwave on high for 15 – 20 seconds.
Facts:
I have since made these again with the mini pie/hamburger pan. I purchased the pan after trying this recipe because I wanted hamburger bun sized. The pan is not what I thought it would be because it is sloped a little on the bottom. Just my two cents worth.
Read my blog posts on Cassava Flour Information and Monkfruit Sweetener Information. Check out Cassava Flour Information and Monkfruit Sweetener Facts and Recipes.
Uses:
What did I try my buns with? I made French Dip, sandwiches, and hamburgers with my Gluten-Free Bun Sandwich Bread. Oh my goodness. The buns were beyond yummy. Success. A wonderful new bun or sandwich bread to use. So I am so thankful to Tyler Florence for sharing his recipe that inspired me to create such a tasty sandwich or hamburger bun bread. Additionally, I personally prefer to wrap my hamburgers in some wax paper and tin foil like they do in restaurants or fast food places.
Inspiration:
Life is hard. We are all on this journey called life. My hope is that in some small way this blog can be a small glimmer of light and that we can encourage kindness. We never know what someone else is going through. Sometimes all it takes to change someone’s day is a kind word, a smile, or even a hug. I believe there is more good in the world than bad. I believe that we see what we focus on. It’s like buying a white car and then suddenly noticing how many white cars are on the road. I want my focus to be on the good. In case no one has told you today “You are amazing!” I hope you have a wonderful and joyous day!” Let’s breathe some positivity into our world.
NOTES: Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s directions for the Whipped Cream Dispenser. It must be held upside down before spraying out any of its contents. This allows for the contents to be nice and fluffy.
*Nutritional Facts are listed below for the hamburger pan is based on 3 servings as it makes 6 buns one top and one bottom bun.
Gluten-Free Homemade Hamburger Buns
Ingredients:
- 4 1/2 oz. Swan potato starch Flour
- 2 1/4 oz. cassava flour
- 1 tbsp monk fruit sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp pink salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp powdered buttermilk
- 1/8 tsp garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp onion powder
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 tsp Everything Bagel Seasoning
Directions For Gluten-Free Homemade Hamburger Buns :
First, preheat the oven to 400. Second, grease mini quiche pans well or a mini pie or hamburger bun pan. Thirdly, measure, and weigh your flours. Finally, combine dry ingredients: Swan potato starch flour, cassava flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, garlic powder, and onion powder until thoroughly combined. Next, combine water, egg, and melted butter. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and mix until combined and thin pancake-like consistency. Finally, pour the batter into a measuring cup that will hold approximately 4 cups. Transfer batter into a Whipped Cream Whipper (0.5 liters).
Use 2 cartridges to charge the Whipper. One cartridge after the other. Be sure to shake well after each cartridge. Allow 10 minutes for the ingredients to infuse.
After 10 minutes hold the Whipped Cream Dispenser upside down and spray batter into each mini quiche pan or into a mini pie/hamburger pan. I think a jumbo muffin tin would also work. Fill each pan close to the top before going on to the next. If there is extra in the bottle go back and fill in the ones that look to be less than the others.
NOTES: Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s directions for the Whipped Cream Dispenser. It must be held upside down before spraying out any of its contents. This allows for the contents to be nice and fluffy.
Top each bun with Everything Bagel Seasoning, sesame or other seeds or not.

Hello LaRena:
I have a friend who has Hashimoto’s. I am going to tell her about your blog.
That is so sweet of you. Thanks so much! Have a great day/night!
On the ingredients list of the recipe-format version towards the end of the post, you forgot to list the cassava flour. (Assuming it should be between potato starch and monk fruit sweetner.)
Austyn, Thank you so much. I have corrected my error. I appreciate your kindness. Hoping your day is amazing and blessed.
