BREADS: LOW CARB SANDWICH BUNS (click here to print)

Quick & Easy Sandwich Buns
Makes 6
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast
1/2 teaspoon Truvia baking blend
3 tablespoons very warm water
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (I shredded my own)
1 1/4 cups (140 grams) almond flour
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 medium egg, beaten

Combine yeast with Truvia baking blend in a cup, then add the 3 tablespoons very warm water, stir, and set aside for yeast to proof.
Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder; set aside
Melt butter and set aside.
Place mozzarella cheese into a microwave-safe bowl, and melt in microwave (this took 90 seconds).
Remove melted cheese from microwave and immediately pour in melted butter.
Add flour mixture, then pour in proofed yeast and beaten egg.
Mix together quickly; I find a fork is best.
Let dough rest about 30-60 seconds, then remove dough from bowl, place onto parchment paper, and knead until smooth, maybe 15-30 seconds.
Divide into six pieces and shape into buns.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, loosely covering with a piece of foil to prevent over-browning.
