Whole Grain Buns

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Two seed wholewheat buns – we’re in love. These are the perfect bun for your next beef, pulled pork, salmon, veggie, vegan… burger. They are yummy for any kind of burger really.

We love these lovely little burger buns. We decided to make ours mini but you can make yours regular size if you prefer.

We initially created this bun recipe to go with our pulled pork burger. We recently made these buns again to hold our boeuf bourguignon burgers (which we will be sharing with you soon!). A homemade, slow-cooked burger is so much better than the fast food variety. These buns are packed with wholewheat flour, sesame seeds and poppy seeds, making them both delicious and full of nutrients.
