Keto Breakfast Buns
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional for extra flavor)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other low-carb milk)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for topping)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme (optional, for added flavor)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it with cooking spray.
2. Prepare the dry ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using). Stir to combine.
3. Mix the wet ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and almond milk until smooth.
4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well until a dough forms. If you’re using cheese, fold it into the dough at this point.
5. Shape the buns:
- Using your hands or a spoon, form the dough into 6-8 small buns and place them on the prepared baking sheet. They can be round or slightly flattened, depending on your preference.
6. Add toppings (optional):
- Sprinkle sesame seeds or fresh herbs on top of each bun for extra flavor and texture.
7. Bake:
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown on top and firm to the touch.
8. Serve:
- Allow the buns to cool for a few minutes before serving. They’re perfect as a breakfast bun, to pair with eggs or avocado, or as a side to your favorite keto meal!
These Keto Breakfast Buns are not only low in carbs but also deliciously satisfying! You can enjoy them with butter, cheese, or even use them as a base for sandwiches. 😋
