Description

These Easy 3-Ingredient Avocado Bread Buns are a high-protein, gluten-free alternative to traditional bread, made with creamy avocado, mozzarella cheese, and egg. They’re quick to prepare, baked until golden and firm, and perfect as a savory snack or sandwich base.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon everything bagel seasoning


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Mash Avocado: In a medium bowl, mash the ripe avocado until it becomes smooth and creamy, creating the base for the buns.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add the large egg, shredded mozzarella cheese, salt, and everything bagel seasoning to the mashed avocado. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully combined into a sticky dough.
  4. Form Buns: Shape the mixture into 4 to 6 small buns, ensuring they hold together well. Place them evenly spaced onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the buns turn golden brown and feel firm to the touch, indicating they are cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the buns to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them warm as a savory snack or as a healthy sandwich base.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add herbs like rosemary or thyme to the mixture before baking.
  • If you prefer a crispier crust, bake a few additional minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  • These buns can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or toaster for best texture.
  • Make sure the avocado is ripe for easier mashing and better flavor.
  • Everything bagel seasoning is optional but adds a nice savory crunch on top.
