Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Almond flour
  • 0.25 cups Psyllium husk powder
  • 0.5 cups Unflavored whey protein isolate
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 4 large Egg whites
  • 2 teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup Boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, whey protein isolate, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg whites and apple cider vinegar until frothy.

Step 4

Add the egg white mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the boiling water while mixing with a spatula until you have a sticky dough.

Step 6

Divide the dough into six equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Optional: Sprinkle the tops of the buns with sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the buns are firm to the touch and golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving. These buns are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
