Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans Canned sardines in olive oil
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drain the canned sardines and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the almond flour and baking powder.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy.
Add the cream cheese to the eggs, beating until well combined.
Melt the butter and allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the egg and cream cheese mixture.
Fold the wet ingredients into the almond flour mixture until a dough forms.
Gently mix in the sardines, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Using a spoon, drop dollops of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into small puffs.
Bake the sardine puffs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed.
Let the puffs cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
