Zucchini Sliders (Easy Low Carb Burger Recipe) - Keto Pots (2024)

Burger patties have been my specialty for quite some time now because they’re easy to make in bulk, and they always come out fantastic even with minimal effort. Here’s how I make the best zucchini sliders and one of my favorite low carb keto burgers ever.

How to Make Low-Carb Keto Sliders

• Combine the ingredients. Add your ground beef, onion and garlic powder, some paprika and dried onion. Mix well.
• Season. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
• Divide the mixture. This recipe makes 8 equal sized balls.
• Arrange and flatten the balls into patties on a baking sheet. Spray the meatballs with a bit of olive oil over the top.
• Bake. Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Top with cheese. Top each of your burger patties with a bit of cheese.
• Continue baking until the cheese is melted.
• Compose the burgers. Add the tomato slie, lettuce leaf and your choice of condiments on your zucchini buns.

How to Make Zucchini Slider Buns

Speaking of zucchini buns, in case you’re not familiar with how I make them, they’re super easy and still very low carb:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Prep the zucchini. Cut the zucchini into ½ inch thick slices. You’ll need 16 slices for the recipe.
• Place the zucchini slices on the baking sheet. Season with some salt and spray over the top with olive oil.
• Bake. Bake for about 15 minutes.

Can I Use Other Meats Instead of Beef?

I’m partial to lean ground beef for this recipe because it gives it that buttery taste that I associate with burgers. However, I’ve also tried this with other meats with great success. Feel free to try it with:

• Ground Chicken Breast
• Ground Turkey
• Ground Beef (with a higher fat percentage like an 80/20 ratio)

Other Keto Bun Alternatives

• Keto Hamburger Buns
• Keto Cloud Buns
• Lettuce leaves

Can These Keto-friendly Burger Sliders Be Frozen?

Yes! These sliders are great even when frozen and reheated. I like to make sure they’re thawed out before reheating to avoid having to apply too much heat, which could dry them out a little.

A trick I like to do to keep it moist is to use a cut of beef that has a slightly higher fat percentage if I know I’m going to be storing it for later. The added fat content also helps keep the burger patty nice and soft.
