Hamburger Buns


With barbecue season right around the corner, this gluten-free bun can allow nearly anyone to enjoy a good burger (even you paleo diet peeps).  It doesn't exactly taste like your ordinary bun, but it's extremely tasty, and is a big hit with my family.  




INGREDIENTS:

- 1 3/4 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon raw honey
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)


DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a small bowl, combine coconut oil and honey, and stir until combined.

3. Mix the dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl, and then add the coconut oil and honey mixture.

4. In a separate bowl blend the eggs with a hand mixer for 5-7 minutes until the eggs are fluffy and have doubled in size.

5. Fold in half of the egg mixture into the dry ingredients.  Once that's blended together, add in the rest of the egg mixture, and stir until combined.

6. Using 1/4 cup, add rounds of batter onto baking sheet.  Sprinkle the buns with sesame seeds if desired.

7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the buns comes out clean.

8. Serve with your favorite hamburger toppings, and enjoy!


Makes approximately 8 buns (you can cut one in half to make a skinny bun, or use two separate ones)
