Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 cup tapioca starch
• 0.5 cup coconut oil
• 0.5 cup hot water
• 1 pound ground pork
• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 1 medium carrot, grated
• 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon pepper
• 2 quarts water, for boiling

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour and tapioca starch.

Step 2

Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat and then add it to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Gradually pour in the hot water, stirring constantly, until a dough forms.

Step 4

Knead the dough gently until smooth and pliable, then cover it with a damp towel and set aside.

Step 5

In another bowl, combine the ground pork, shredded cabbage, grated carrot, sliced green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, coconut aminos, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Divide the dough into small balls (about 1 1/2 inches in diameter) and roll each ball into a flat circle using a rolling pin.

Step 7

Place about 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons of the pork mixture in the center of each dough circle.

Step 8

Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape and press the edges tightly to seal.

Step 9

Bring 2 quarts of water to a rolling boil in a large pot.

Step 10

Carefully add the dumplings to the boiling water and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the dumplings float to the surface and the filling is cooked through.

Step 11

Use a slotted spoon to remove the dumplings from the water and transfer them to a serving plate.

Step 12

Serve the dumplings hot with additional coconut aminos for dipping if desired.
