Each bun is 2g net carbs.
All nutritional information is based on third-party calculations and should be considered estimates. Actual nutritional content will vary with brands used, measuring methods, portion sizes and more.
Watch the instructional video to see how I made them.
Don't overbake the buns as they will be too crusty. You want to remove them from the oven once they are lightly golden. Do not slice into them until they are completely cooled.
