Keto / low carb
This an easy keto buns recipe, made in 10 minutes without even turning on the oven.
The ingredients are few and easy to find.
These buns can satisfy the cravings for bread in a different way than you are used to.
Steaming is much faster and cheaper.
Of course you can bake these buns in the microwave oven or the conventional oven but many people do not want to cook in microwaves and in the second case the oven should be preheated and the baking time should be doubled.
For steaming you can use the pressure cooker with the special steam basket, or a steamer, or a wide pot (if you put a basket in it).
