Ingredients

  • shredded cheese

    mozzarella cheese * see notes

    3 c
  • cream cheese
    2 oz
  • almond flour
    1 ¾ c
  • baking powder
    1 tbsp
  • eggs
    2 large

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a microwave safe bowl, add the shredded cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 20 second spurts, until the cheese is mostly melted. Remove and whisk together, until combined and smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Transfer the warm cheese mixture into a food processor. Add the dry ingredients, along with the eggs, and pulse until a thick dough remains.

  4. 4

    Lightly dust a kitchen surface with almond flour. Transfer the dough onto it, and, using slightly wet hands, knead it several times. Once the dough is smooth, divide it into 6 portions. Roll the portions of dough into balls and place them on the lined tray. Press down onto each one into a thinner burger bun shape. Brush the tops with the remaining egg (whisked), before sprinkling the sesame seeds on top.

  5. 5

    Bake the buns for 14-17 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes, before slicing in half and serving.
