Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add the eggs and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
Pour in the boiling water and stir quickly until the dough thickens and becomes lightly sticky.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape them into small buns. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the buns are firm and golden brown. Allow to cool slightly.
While the buns are baking, prepare the sardine filling. Drain the canned sardines, reserving the oil, and mash them in a bowl.
Add the softened cream cheese, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, fresh dill, ground black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the reserved sardine oil. Mix until well combined.
Once the buns are cool enough to handle, slice them in half horizontally.
Spread the sardine mixture evenly over the bottom halves of the buns, then cover with the top halves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Keto Sardine Buns!
