Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground chicken
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, almond flour, parmesan cheese, and egg. Use your hands or a spatula to mix until fully combined.

Step 3

Add in the garlic powder, onion powder, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed throughout the chicken mixture.

Step 4

Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a bun shape about 3/4 inch thick, placing it onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Brush the tops of each chicken bun with olive oil to help them brown during baking.

Step 6

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each bun as a garnish.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are cooked through and have a golden brown color.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before using them as you would any buns for your sandwiches or burgers.

Step 9

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
