Calorie content and chemical composition
The most important factor in such baking is the recipe. After all, it is he who determines whether it will be sweet or not, what it is eaten with, what is included in it. The chemical composition is no less important than taste and aroma; the benefits or possible harm of the product will depend on it. When it comes to store-bought baked goods, it is difficult to predict the full list of healthy ingredients, since the manufacturer can optimize its production in different ways, using food additives or secret ingredients.
Therefore, it is better to prepare them yourself in order to know exactly about all the components.
Plus, it's much cheaper and not as difficult as it might seem. Depending on what is used in the baked goods, its chemical composition will vary. Chemical composition of popular buns

These components saturate well, and the supply of iron in them is almost always within the daily norm. Depending on the recipe, powders, fillings, and additives may be added to the buns. All these additional ingredients not only improve the taste, but also add to the list of chemical elements. In addition, calorie content also depends on the ingredients.

How to cook a healthy burger
Hamburgers, fishburgers, chicken burgers, cheeseburgers and other fast food options are quite easy to make at home. Using natural sauce, homemade cutlet and bun, the burgers are much healthier and tastier.
The cooking process is quick and simple, the main thing is to decide what filling to choose for the burger.
The cutlets are fried both on the grill and in an AP frying pan (with non-stick coating).
We make the sauce without mayonnaise. Most often, the dietary spread is a mustard-sour cream sauce with the addition of natural ketchup. Sour cream can be replaced with lower-calorie products: natural yogurt or soft cottage cheese. Vegan sauce options are also possible - Tabasco, guacamole.
Additional ingredients are added according to your own taste: from the classic ones - pickled onions and cucumbers, to fried slices of eggplant, zucchini or pineapple.
Topping options for healthy burgers
A meat cutlet with cheese and herbs is not the limit of possible fillings. There are different variations of burger filling: both for vegans and meat-eaters. Let's look at the most popular:
- Fish cutlets - we make minced meat from any type of fish, the most popular: salmon, tuna, and also shrimp and crab cutlets. The fish meat is mixed with an egg, finely chopped onion, and spices - cutlets are formed and fried over medium heat for 4-5 minutes. Pickles, onions, and parsley are often used as additions. The sauce can be made with sour cream and mustard or simply spread with soft cheese and yogurt on the buns.
- Vegan cutlets - there are many options here. Lenten dishes are prepared from vegetables or legumes: from cabbage and beet cutlets, to chickpeas and squash. The sauce is guacamole or tahini, complemented with pickled red onions, lettuce and tomato. You can add mushrooms.
- Meat patties - a classic burger made from ground beef. More tender types of cutlets: made from minced chicken or turkey, it is better to make them with the addition of zucchini, so they turn out more juicy. Proper nutrition does not exclude pork, so cutlets made from lean pork are also perfect for a burger. The sauce is best prepared from sour cream with the addition of ketchup and mustard. Additionally, add tomato or pickled cucumber, lettuce, cheese, and mushrooms.
And also, diet burgers can be made simply from boiled/baked pieces of meat or fish, without wasting time on preparing cutlets. It turns out even more useful.
