Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 cup Tapioca flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, sliced
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Whole30-compliant mayonnaise
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and combine them with almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a sticky dough forms.
Shape the dough into two oval rolls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and firm to the touch. Allow them to cool completely before slicing.
Once cooled, slice the rolls in half horizontally to create sandwich-style buns.
Spread a thin layer of Whole30-compliant mayonnaise on the inside of each bun.
Layer the bottom half of each bun with lettuce leaves, sliced chicken breast, tomato slices, and avocado slices.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
