Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Boiling water
- 1 unit Egg (large)
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil (optional, for brushing)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute ingredients.
Step 2
Pour the boiling water into the dry ingredients while stirring continuously. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add one beaten egg and apple cider vinegar to the slightly cooled mixture. Knead the dough with your hands or a spatula until it forms a smooth and pliable consistency.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and gently flatten the top to shape it like a bun.
Step 5
Prepare a steamer by lining the steaming basket with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Place the dough balls in the basket, making sure they are spaced apart to allow for expansion during steaming.
Step 6
Cover the steamer with a lid and steam over medium heat for 15 minutes, or until the buns are firm and cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the buns from the steamer and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 8
Optionally, brush the tops of the buns with a small amount of sesame oil for extra flavor before serving.
Step 9
Enjoy your keto steamed buns plain, or slice them open to fill with your favorite low-carb fillings like pulled pork, shredded chicken, or sautéed vegetables.
