Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 large Egg
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with the chopped onion until beef is browned and onion is translucent, about 7-8 minutes.
Add minced garlic, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to the beef mixture. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
Add the melted cheese mixture and eggs to the flour mixture. Mix well until a dough forms. It may be sticky at first but should hold together.
On a clean surface, divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a disk about 1/4 inch thick.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the meat filling in the center of each disk. Carefully fold the dough over the filling, pinching the edges to seal and form a bun.
Place buns seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of each bun with the egg wash to achieve a glossy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly buns warm!
