Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cups tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 pound ground beef (grass-fed preferred)
- 1 medium white onion, finely minced
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 6 slices dill pickles, sliced
- 6 large lettuce leaves
- 3 tablespoons avocado mayo (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, tapioca starch, coconut flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, melted coconut oil, and apple cider vinegar until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each into a small bun. Place them on the lined baking sheet.
Bake the buns for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow them to cool completely.
While the buns bake, heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef, minced onion, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking the meat into small crumbles, until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat if needed.
Slice each bun in half and place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun for added crunch.
Spoon a portion of the cooked ground beef mixture onto the lettuce-lined bun.
Top each slider with a slice of dill pickle and a dollop of avocado mayo, if desired.
Place the top half of the bun on each slider and serve immediately.
