Animal-Based Keto Burger

Animal-Based Burger

These animal-based keto burgers are very nutritious, delicious and satiating. I played around with the usual ingredients well known from the Paleolithic-Ketogenic Diet (PKD) to create something new. The burgers are very low in carbohydrates and have a perfect fat to protein ratio to ensure ketosis. They are made of ground beef, liver, bone marrow, lard and eggs, so they are rich in bioavailable nutrients, such as essential amino acids, healthy fats, B vitamins, especially vitamin B 12, vitamins A and D, zinc, selenium and choline.


These keto burgers have four parts: a bun, a beef patty, a liver pancake and some mayonnaise. As the buns don’t contain any egg white powder, baking soda, or other raising agents, they will be quite flat and thin. But you can cut them in half and they will still give a different taste and structure than if you had the patties without it. If you like your burger with a thicker bun, you can use two of it for one burger.

You can also make the buns with the PKD bread, the Keto-Carnivore bread or the Breakfast muffin recipe, or even with the Marrow pancakes.
