Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Erythritol (granulated)
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Butter (melted)
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, salt, and erythritol. Whisk until well mixed and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and melted butter. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheese is completely melted and forms a smooth mixture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, and apple cider vinegar.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined. The dough will be sticky but manageable.
Next, incorporate the melted cheese mixture into the dough. Use your hands or a spatula to fold and knead the dough thoroughly until the cheese is well distributed.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each into a bun. Place the buns on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Brush the tops of the buns with extra melted butter if desired, to achieve a golden brown finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving. These can be enjoyed plain or as a base for your favorite keto-friendly sandwiches!
