Low-Carb Hot Dog Buns

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk or sift together dry ingredients. Sifting ingredients is preferred to get a finer texture.

   For this step

   • 1 cup almond flour
   • 1/2 cup unflavored whey protein powder
   • 2 tablespoons whole psyllium husk flakes
   • 2 tablespoons golden flax seed meal
   • 2 teaspoons baking powder
   • 1 1/4 teaspoons xanthan gum
   • 1/2 teaspoon salt
3. 3

   Add eggs, melted butter and sour cream to dry ingredients. Mix until combined.

   For this step

   • 2 eggs
   • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
   • 2 tablespoons sour cream
4. 4

   Wet your hands with some water or oil in order to handle the dough. This will prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. Grab a handful of dough, form it into an oblong hot dog shape and place on a parchment lined baking tray. Continue with remaining dough. You can form your desired size. I can make about 5 normal sized hot dog buns with this recipe. Evenly place dough balls on the tray spacing about 1 inch apart.

5. 5

   Bake at 400 degrees F for 12-13 minutes or until slightly hardened on the outside and spongy to the touch. Let cool for 3-5 minutes before slicing.
