Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • 0.25 cups coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 tablespoon erythritol
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg white
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup cooked roast pork, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons green onion, finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and erythritol. Whisk until well mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and egg white together. Add the almond milk and apple cider vinegar, then stir to combine.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth, thick batter forms.

Step 4

In a small cup, mix the baking soda with 1 teaspoon of water and add to the batter; mix well.

Step 5

Prepare the filling by combining the shredded roast pork with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, ground ginger, and chopped green onions in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Flatten each piece slightly and place a portion of the pork filling in the center.

Step 7

Carefully gather and pinch the edges of the dough around the filling to seal, forming a bun shape.

Step 8

Place each formed bun onto a small square of parchment paper, sealed side down.

Step 9

Heat a steamer over medium-high heat and steam the buns for about 10-15 minutes, or until the dough is cooked through and fluffy.

Step 10

Serve the steamed buns warm, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
