Keto Buns

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a large microwavable bowl, add shredded mozzarella cheese (don't shred your own mozzarella because it will have more moisture) and cream cheese. Melt in 20-second intervals and stir. This should take around 40 seconds, but may take longer depending on your microwave settings.

Step 3

Once you have stirred cheese together, add 2 room-temperature eggs, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and Italian seasoning. Stir to incorporate all ingredients together.

Step 4

Divide into 4 sections and form hamburger-sized buns on the baking sheet. Wetting your hands slightly will help prevent sticking when shaping. Sprinkle extra Italian seasoning on top if desired.

Step 5

Make egg wash by adding a whole egg with a dash of water. You could also use two egg whites instead of one full yolk. Set aside.

Step 6

Bake buns for 20 minutes. Halfway through baking, brush egg wash over the buns to get a nice golden texture. Once baked, remove from oven and let cool completely before slicing open. Enjoy!
