Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour, tapioca flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
In a small saucepan, melt the coconut oil over low heat.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted coconut oil until smooth.
Pour the egg and coconut oil mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Finely shred the cooked chicken breast and add it to the dough along with onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, and black pepper.
Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten slightly into a disk shape.
Place each disk on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each puff.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puffs are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve warm as a delightful appetizer or snack.
