Juicy Keto Turkey Burgers

These keto turkey burgers are delicious and a great way to use ground chicken. It uses simple ingredients for the perfect, juicy turkey burgers.

This keto turkey burger recipe is an excellent alternative to beef burgers. It’s a recipe for healthy burgers for anyone on the keto diet who avoids red meat.

It’s the perfect, tasty turkey patty recipe for your keto meal plans.

The fact that these are bunless burgers the whole family will enjoy will make meal prep a breeze.

Sure, using ground beef guarantees a juicy, flavorful burger, but I found a way to ensure that these turkey burgers stay moist by adding butter to the patty ingredients.

It’s the easiest way to ensure you have juicy burgers you’ll be proud to serve.

This recipe was inspired by our keto chicken burgers, and it’s another option for those who want a twist on the classic red meat burger.

Keto Turkey Burgers

I like serving my low-carb turkey burgers on a lettuce bun (lettuce wrap) or on a bed of salad greens as a burger bowl; you could, of course, use our keto white bread or our high-fiber bread for a low carb bun.

Add your favorite burger toppings. I chose to add a slice of tomato, some red onion, and cheddar cheese for a ground turkey recipe that made my family’s tastebuds happy!

I also included our family’s burger sauce recipe; it’s a keto-friendly option that we like to place on top of the turkey burgers to amplify their flavor.

But you can also serve these healthy turkey burgers with your favorite garlic aioli.

How To Make Keto Turkey Burgers

You’ll start by preparing the burger sauce by adding all of the sauce ingredients to a small bowl.  Then mix the ingredients until well combined. Place the prepared sauce in the refrigerator for later.

Next, you’ll cut the cold butter into small cubes. This secret ingredient will keep your turkey burgers nice and juicy as they cook.

Once you cut the butter, store it in the refrigerator until you are ready to add it to the turkey mixture.

In a large bowl, place all of the turkey burger ingredients and mix well until everything is combined.

Then, fold in the cold butter cubes.

Using wet hands, form six balls to make the patties. Flatten the turkey burgers into 1/2-inch patties.

You’ll need a little oil to cook these lean ground turkey burgers. Cook the patties in a hot skillet for 4-5 minutes per side.

Once these delicious burgers are cooked and have reached an internal temperature of 170 F in a meat thermometer, top them with your choice of cheese, if you like.

I’ve also included instructions on how to cook on the grill for those of you who might want to add these to your next BBQ.

Serve your turkey burgers on a bed of salad greens or iceberg lettuce. Last but not least, top the turkey patties with a tablespoon or two of the burger sauce.

Substitutions

This recipe calls for almond flour, which takes the place of bread crumbs. However, you can substitute the almond flour 1:1 for pork rinds or use one tablespoon of coconut flour instead.
