Irresistible Low-Carb Cheese Buns: The Perfect Guilt-Free Indulgence
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Melt the cheeses
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 30–45 seconds until melted. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Add dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, mix together almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Add the melted cheese mixture and the egg.
Step 3: Form the dough
Mix everything thoroughly using a spatula or your hands until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, chill it for 5–10 minutes in the refrigerator.
Step 4: Shape the buns
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Divide the dough into 5–6 equal pieces and shape them into round buns. Place them on the tray, leaving space between each.
Step 5: Bake to perfection
Sprinkle your desired toppings and bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown and slightly crispy on top.
Step 6: Cool and enjoy
Let the buns cool for 5 minutes before serving. They’re delicious warm and make an excellent base for sandwiches, burgers, or even breakfast eggs.
