Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and apple cider vinegar until fully blended.
Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
Pour the boiling water into the mixture and stir quickly to combine. The dough will start to thicken.
Once the dough has come together, let it sit for a minute to allow the psyllium husk to absorb the moisture.
With slightly wet hands, form the dough into 6 equal-sized balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly press the tops of the dough balls to flatten them slightly. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top if using.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the buns are firm to the touch and lightly golden on top.
Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
Enjoy these vegetarian keto buns as a perfect low-carb bread alternative!
