Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large egg
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 1 quarter cup parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese.
Microwave on high for about 1 minute, then stir. Heat for another 30 seconds if needed until both cheeses are well melted and combined.
Add the almond flour, baking powder, and garlic powder into the cheese mixture. Mix until fully incorporated.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly between each addition until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Roll each part into a ball and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
Flatten each ball slightly with wet hands to form a bun shape.
Sprinkle the top of each bun with grated parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving. They are delicious warm, or you can store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
