Hamburgers have finally shaken that "unhealthy fast food" association and have become quite trendy, healthy, and even artisanal in recent years. They've become so popular and ubiquitous, in fact, that you can even find vegan and dessert versions nowadays. And while we love a good burger, we love a good bun even more and wanted to test the theory of whether the bun makes the burger. We think the answer here is pretty clear, but go ahead and see for yourself!
These alternative hamburger recipes are not only delicious, exotic, and easy to make, but they're also gluten-free, low-carb, and keto friendly, so go ahead and enjoy your guilt-free burger!
Recipe 1: Cauliflower Burger
You'll need (for 2 burgers):
For the cauliflower bun:
- 14 oz cauliflower
- 1½ oz grated parmesan
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp corn starch
- ½ tsp salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
For the burger:
- 10½ oz ground meat
- salt & pepper
- oil for cooking
- 2 cheddar slices
- 2 lettuce leaves
- red onion slices
- 2 tomato slices
- ketchup
Here's how:
1.1 Cut the cauliflower into florets and run them over a medium fine cheese grater. Microwave the shredded cauliflower for 5 minutes at 700 watts (or blanch it in boiling water for 30 seconds). Pour the cauliflower into a bowl lined with a clean dish towel and let it cool down a bit before using the cloth to squeeze out the moisture.
1.2 Mix the drained cauliflower with parmesan, eggs, corn starch, salt, and pepper. Form four equally-sized, round buns and arrange them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the buns and bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.
1.3 Season the ground meat with salt and pepper, form two hamburger patties, and fry them in a bit of oil until cooked through. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and let it melt.
1.4. Finally, assemble the burger. Place the hamburger patty between the two cauliflower buns and add lettuce, onions, tomato, ketchup, and any other condiments you want.

Recipe 2: Plantain Burger
You'll need (for 2 burgers):
For the plantain bun:
- 2 plantains
- cooking oil
For the burger:
- 10½ oz ground meat
- salt & pepper
- oil for cooking
- 2 cheddar slices
- 2 lettuce leaves
- 2 tomato slices
- yogurt dressing
Here's how:
2.1 Cut the ends off the plantain and remove the peel. Cut the plantain in half and briefly fry both halves in hot oil.
2.2 Use a sturdy object, such as a cutting board, to flatten the plantain halves on your work surface. Briefly fry the "buns" once again in hot oil and remove with a slotted spoon. Repeat the entire process with the second plantain.
2.3 Repeat Step #1.3 to make the hamburger patties.
2.4 Finally, assemble the burger. Place the hamburger patty between the two plantain buns and add lettuce, tomato, yogurt dressing, and any other condiments you want.
