Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 4 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Granulated erythritol (optional, for a touch of sweetness)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, and granulated erythritol (if using).

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy. Add the almond milk, melted butter, and apple cider vinegar, and whisk to combine.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until a sticky dough forms. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes to allow the flours to absorb the liquid and the xanthan gum to activate.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Wet your hands lightly with water to prevent sticking, and shape each portion into a round bun. Place the buns on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them as they will puff up slightly during baking.

Step 6

Using a sharp knife, score the tops of the buns with a shallow ‘X’ if desired, for a classic look.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown on top and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy the buns warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate or freeze and reheat as needed.
