Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 1 cup Tapioca starch
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 4 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Full-fat coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your 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, tapioca starch, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the coconut milk, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until a soft, sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 5

With lightly oiled hands, divide the dough into 6 equal portions and gently shape each into a bun. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.

Step 6

Using the back of a spoon or your fingertips, slightly flatten the tops of the buns to create a more traditional shape.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown on top and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Allow the buns to cool for at least 10 minutes on the baking sheet before removing. This helps them firm up further and ensures they are fluffy inside.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These buns are delicious on their own or used as a base for sandwiches.
