Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 medium Tomato
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your panini press or grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the shredded mozzarella and one tablespoon of melted butter.
Step 4
Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until you have a dough-like consistency. Then add the psyllium husk powder and mix until incorporated.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each portion into a small ball and flatten to form a 1/4-inch thick flatbread.
Step 6
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the flatbreads for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Step 7
Assemble the paninis by placing two slices of cheddar cheese, slices of tomato, and 3 basil leaves on two of the flatbreads.
Step 8
Top with the remaining flatbreads to form a sandwich.
Step 9
Brush the outer side of each sandwich with the remaining melted butter.
Step 10
Place the sandwiches in the preheated panini press and grill for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
Step 11
Remove from the press, let cool slightly, then slice in half and serve warm.
