Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 cup Tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca starch, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the coconut milk, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until a soft, sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
With lightly oiled hands, divide the dough into 6 equal portions and gently shape each into a bun. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.
Using the back of a spoon or your fingertips, slightly flatten the tops of the buns to create a more traditional shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown on top and firm to the touch.
Allow the buns to cool for at least 10 minutes on the baking sheet before removing. This helps them firm up further and ensures they are fluffy inside.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These buns are delicious on their own or used as a base for sandwiches.
