Cooking tip: This recipe was inspired by the Hearts of Palm Easy Keto Bread recipe from Melissa Sevigny on her I Breath I'm Hungry blog.
Ingredients:
- 227 grams Hearts of Palm
- 1 1/3 cups Almond Flour, Blanched
- 2/3 cup Coconut Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 60 grams Whey Protein Concentrate (30g=1/3 cup)
- 4 teaspoons Baking powder
- 3 each Egg
- 2 tablespoons Butter, salted or unsalted
- 1/2 cup Hot Water
- 1/4 cup Flax Seed Meal
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°; line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Allow the hearts of palm to drain while sifting the almond flour, coconut flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt together into a medium bowl. Whisk in the flax seed meal until evenly combined.
- In a blender, combine the hearts of palm, eggs, hot water and melted butter until smooth and lightened in color. Scrape into the bowl of a stand mixer with dough hooks attached. With the mixer on low, add the flours, scraping down the sides and bottom as needed to fully incorporate wet and dry ingredients until a dough forms, about 3 minutes.
- Use ¼ cup dough to form a bun shaped round, 3–inches in diameter and ½-inch thick on the parchment lined sheet pans. Repeat until all the dough is used, leaving ½ inch between buns. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until buns have risen a bit and they are evenly browned. Cool on wire racks for at least 30 minutes before slicing in half and consuming. One bun is one serving. Store unused buns in an airtight container in the freezer.
