Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 3/4 cup Otto's Naturals cassava flour
  • 3/4 cup + 3 T. Bob's Red Mill tapioca flour
  • 4 large organic, pasture-raised eggs
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 egg, scrambled egg wash (optional)
  • seasame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cassava flour, tapioca flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the eggs and olive oil. Stir until a smooth dough forms. Knead the dough a couple of times with your hands. If it seems too sticky, add a little more tacioca flour until the dough can be handled.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Shape them into a bun and place on the baking sheet.
  • Brush some scrambled egg onto each bun and sprinkle with seasame seeds. This step is optional and you can leave off the egg wash and the seasame seeds if desired.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes. The buns should be golden brown. Allow the buns to cool on a cooling rack before slicing, toasting, and adding your burger!
