Ingredients:

For the Egg Bun:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp butter (for frying)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Cheese Bun:

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar)
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp butter (for frying)

For the Burger:

  • 1 lb ground beef (or any ground meat of your choice)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1 slice of cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your preferred cheese)
  • Optional toppings: crispy bacon, a dollop of sour cream, or other Carnivore-friendly additions

Instructions:

Step 1: Make the Egg Bun

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp butter.
  2. Crack 2 eggs into the pan, being careful not to break the yolks. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Cook the eggs for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny (or cook longer for firmer yolks). Once done, carefully remove the eggs from the pan and set them aside.

Step 2: Make the Cheese Bun

  1. In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp butter and let it melt.
  2. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese evenly into the pan to form a small circle. Allow the cheese to melt and crisp up for 2-3 minutes, forming a cheesy “bun.”
  3. Carefully flip the cheese bun using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are golden and crispy. Remove the cheese bun and set it aside.

Step 3: Cook the Burger

  1. While the egg and cheese buns are cooking, form the ground beef into burger patties, seasoning them with salt and pepper.
  2. In the same skillet, cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side until they reach your desired level of doneness.
  3. If using cheese, add a slice on top of the patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Step 4: Assemble the Burger

  1. Place the cheese bun at the bottom, followed by the cooked burger patty.
  2. Top the patty with the egg bun, gently pressing down to keep everything in place.
  3. Optionally, add crispy bacon, a dollop of sour cream, or any other Carnivore-friendly toppings you enjoy.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

Cut the burger in half if desired and enjoy your delicious, protein-packed Carnivore Diet Burger with egg and cheese buns.
