Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 3 tbsp psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Baking Tray
  • 1 Parchment Paper
  • 1 Measuring Cups & Spoons

Method
 

  1. Mix The Dry Ingredients: Begin by mixing almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder and salt in a bowl. This ensures that it is evenly distributed and you get a smoother dough.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Crack eggs in, drizzle olive oil, and continue to slowly drizzle in some warm water while whisking. The psyllium husk will start to swell and the dough will get thicker.
  3. Shape the Buns: Divide the dough into six equal portions. Shape each portion into elongated rolls resembling hotdog buns. Keep them uniform for even baking.
  4. Bake: Place shaped buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven 25 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to touch.
  5. Cool: Let the buns cool for 10 minutes before cutting. This standing time results in a less crumbly, more bread-like texture.

Notes

  • Go for ultra-fine blanched almond flour for the best texture.
  • Do not omit psyllium husk — it’s a must for the elasticity and fluffiness.
  • Top with sesame seeds for added flavour and a pretty topping.
  • Cool buns on rack, before slicing to avoid breaking.
  • Have leftovers? Keep in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for later.
