Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 cup tapioca starch
• 3 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour and tapioca starch until well combined.

Step 2

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the eggs, olive oil, and sea salt.

Step 3

Using a fork, whisk the eggs gently, slowly incorporating the surrounding flour until a dough begins to form.

Step 4

Once the mixture is too thick to use a fork, knead the dough with your hands until it is smooth and elastic, about 2-3 minutes. If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it comes together without being sticky.

Step 5

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. This allows the flours to hydrate properly.

Step 6

Divide the dough into four equal parts to make handling easier.

Step 7

Using a rolling pin or pasta maker, roll each dough portion out until it is about 1/8 inch thick, using a bit of tapioca starch to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Cut the rolled dough into your desired dumpling shape. Common shapes include squares or circles for folding over fillings later.

Step 9

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a generous pinch of sea salt.

Step 10

Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water, cooking in batches if necessary. Cook for about 6-8 minutes or until the dumplings float and are tender.

Step 11

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

Step 12

Serve immediately with compliant sauces or as a side to your main dish. Enjoy your Whole30 homemade pasta dumplings!
