Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Coconut flour
- 0.25 cup Arrowroot starch
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Water
- 2 medium Yellow onion
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and finely chop the onions. Set aside.
In a medium skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium heat, then add the chopped onions. Sauté until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
Add ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper to the onions. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove the onion mixture from heat and stir in chopped fresh cilantro and lemon juice. Allow the filling to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour and arrowroot starch. Mix well.
Heat the coconut oil in a small saucepan until just melted, then add it to the flour mixture along with the water. Mix to form a dough.
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water, 1 teaspoon at a time.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Flatten each ball into a small circle and place a spoonful of the onion filling in the center.
Fold over the dough to form a semi-circle and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
Place the filled samosas on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the samosas are golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these Whole30-compliant mini onion samosas as a savory treat or appetizer!
