Vegan Yeast Free Hamburger Buns are very easy to make and nice to have on hand for whenever you are craving bread. You can enjoy them freshly baked or freeze them for later.
I love bread and used to eat it alot, but unfortunately, as I entered my thirties I developed candida yeast sensitivity and had to cut all yeast products out of my diet. I tried alot of yeast free bun recipes I found online, but none were satisfactory. Thankfully, I finally found this recipe and it changed my life. These buns are soft yet hearty, and can be used as both buns and bread. They’re easy to make too.
What I also love about this recipe is how versatile it is. You can easily change it to match your dietary or taste requirements. You can use gluten free flours if you’re gluten intolerant, or all whole-wheat to make it higher in nutrients and fibre. Whatever your taste, these buns are the perfect and easy choice.
Making Yeast Free Hamburger Buns
Making hamburger buns without yeast is a much easier process than when you use yeast. They take a fraction of the time and the results are just as good. For this recipe I used whole wheat flour along with all purpose flour because it’s healthier and has a nice nutty, wholemeal flavour. You can use spelt flour as well.
The hamburger buns are mixed in a single bowl and don’t require kneading. Once combined, the dough is then gently rolled out and cut with a biscuit cutter.
The buns are baked under tinfoil and then let to cool on a baking rack. I usually slice them during the cooling stage when they are still soft. Once cooled, they become firmer and more dense and breadlike. The buns then can be eaten fresh or frozen for later.
I like to top the buns with sesame seeds but you can use any seed to garnish, even a seed blend. Garnishing with seeds adds a nice, professional looking touch and adds taste and nutrition to the buns.
Enjoying Your Yeast Free Hamburger Buns
These hamburger buns are wonderfully versatile and can be eaten with every meal and with every type of filler. I especially love to eat them open faced with almond butter and banana and berries for breakfast or with avocado for a quick high protein, high fibre snack.

Yeast Free Hamburger Buns
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 400 ml can organic coconut milk
- 2 tablespoon plant based milk
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or lightly grease. Set aside.
- Into a large mixing bowl, combine the flours and baking powder together.
- Pour the coconut milk over the flour. Stir gently until mixed. Dough should be soft and just firm enough to be shaped.
- Shape dough into a ball. If it is too soft and sticky, and sticks to the bowl, add a little more flour. Once formed cover the bowl with a clean dishtowel and let sit at room temperature for one hour.
- After an hour, turn the dough onto a large floured surface. Roll dough out gently until about 1/2 inch in thickness. Cut out with a biscuit cutter, reusing dough scraps.
- Place 6 buns onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush tops with plant based milk and gently pressed down sesame seeds.
- Cover the baking sheet loosely with tin foil. Bake buns for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and remove tin foil. Return to oven and bake for 2-4 more minutes until firm but soft to the tough with a mealy crumb while sliced.
- Remove buns from oven. Place buns on cooling rack.
- While still hot, slice in half lengthwise with a bread knife, using a pot holder or cloth to hold buns while slicing. Let cool completely.
- Repeat baking with the rest of the dough.
- Store cooled buns in the fridge or freeze for later.
