Ingredients
  

For the Buns

  • 1 cup Full-Fat Cottage Cheese
  • 3 Large Egg Whites
  • 1/4 cup Warm Water
  • 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups Blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/4 cup Psyllium Husk Powder
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt

For the Topping

  • 1 Large Egg, Beaten
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds

Equipment

  • blender

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F with a rack in the lower-middle position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Blend the cottage cheese, egg whites, warm water and apple cider vinegar in a blender until completely smooth.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder and sea salt until no lumps remain.
  • Pour the blended mixture into the dry ingredients and mix for about 30 seconds, just until a soft dough forms. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes so the psyllium can absorb the liquid.
  • With wet hands, divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each one into a smooth dome about 3.5 inches wide. Arrange them on the baking sheet with 2 inches of space between them.
  • Brush the tops gently with the beaten egg and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
  • Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the buns are puffed, golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing in half. For the best burger experience, toast the cut sides in a buttered skillet for 1 minute.
