Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 4 Eggs
• 0.5 cup Butter
• 2 ounces Cream cheese
• 12 slices Deli ham
• 6 slices Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Mustard (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 tablespoon Poppy seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Melt 1/4 cup of butter and combine it with 3 eggs and the cream cheese in a separate bowl. Mix until smooth.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly to form a dough.

Step 5

Scoop the dough into 12 equal portions onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape each portion into a small round bun.

Step 6

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 7

While the buns are baking, slice the deli ham and cheddar cheese into pieces suitable for the sliders.

Step 8

Once the buns are done cooking, let them cool slightly. Then slice them in half horizontally.

Step 9

Take the remaining 1/4 cup of butter and melt it. Stir in garlic powder and onion powder. You can also mix in the mustard if using.

Step 10

To assemble the sliders, place a slice of ham and cheese between each sliced bun.

Step 11

Place the sliders back in the oven for another 5 minutes, just until the cheese is melted.

Step 12

Brush the top of each slider with the seasoned butter mixture. Sprinkle poppy seeds on top for garnish if using.

Step 13

Serve the sliders warm and enjoy your delicious low-carb treats!
