Whenever I make this, my husband is over the moon and always wants seconds!

Instructions

1. Prep for Baking

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Melt the Cheeses

  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and cream cheese.

  • Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir, then heat for another 30 seconds, or until the cheeses are completely melted and smooth when stirred.

3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

  • Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the melted cheese. Mix quickly until a crumbly dough forms.

  • Add the eggs and grated Parmesan cheese. Continue to mix until a uniform dough comes together. (Pro tip: If the dough is tough to mix, use your hands to knead it gently until smooth).

4. Shape the Buns

  • Divide the dough into 6 equal portions.

  • Roll each portion into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Gently press down to flatten slightly into a classic bun shape.

5. Bake to Golden Perfection

  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the buns are puffed up and have a beautiful golden-brown crust.

  • Let them cool on the baking sheet for at least 5-10 minutes before handling. They will firm up as they cool.

💡 Chef’s Notes & Serving Suggestions

  • Garlic Bread Version: For a delicious twist, brush the tops with melted garlic butter before baking.

  • Storage: Store leftover buns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For the best texture, reheat them in a toaster oven or a conventional oven until warm and crisp.

  • Serving Ideas: Use them as burger buns, slice and toast them for breakfast sandwiches, or serve alongside a warm bowl of soup or a fresh salad.
