Loaded Keto Bagel Burger (Gluten Free, High Fibre Dinner)

Loaded Keto Bagel Burger (Gluten Free, High Fibre Dinner)

A proper dinner that doesn’t feel like a compromise

This is how you use Dillon Organic Keto Bagels properly.

Not as a substitute. As the base of something solid. A stacked, loaded burger that actually holds together, delivers on texture, and feels like a full evening meal.

Low carb, gluten-free, high fibre. But more importantly, it eats well.

Why this works

  • Keto bagels hold structure better than most low carb breads
  • Feels like a proper burger, not a “health version”
  • High protein, high fibre, actually filling
  • Easy to customise based on what you’ve got

Ingredients (serves 2)

  • 2 Dillon Organic Keto Bagels (halved and toasted)
  • 2 burger patties (beef, chicken, or plant-based)
  • 2 slices cheese (cheddar, American, or vegan alternative)
  • Lettuce leaves
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp mayo or burger sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • Salt and black pepper

Optional extras
Pickles, mustard, ketchup, avocado, crispy onions, chilli jam

How to make a keto bagel burger

1. Toast the bagels

Slice and toast until golden. This gives structure and stops everything slipping.

2. Cook the patties

Season and cook in a hot pan. Get a proper sear. Add cheese in the final minute so it melts.

3. Build the base

Spread mayo or sauce on both sides of the bagel.

4. Stack it properly

Bottom bagel > lettuce > patty > tomato > onion > extras > top bagel.

5. Serve immediately

This is best eaten fresh while everything is hot and structured.
