Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Cooked chicken breast
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese.

Step 3

Microwave the cheeses in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until they are completely melted and combined smoothly.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix almond flour and baking powder together.

Step 5

Add the almond flour mixture, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to the melted cheese mixture, mixing well.

Step 6

Incorporate the egg into the dough and mix until a dough forms. It may be sticky, so you might want to wet your hands to handle it better.

Step 7

Finely shred or chop the cooked chicken breast and fold it into the dough until well incorporated.

Step 8

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a bun, placing them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each bun.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 11

Allow the buns to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
