Ingredients

DRY INGREDIENTS FOR BREAD/BUN

Almond Flour = 180 g / 1 1/2 cups (You can also use any of my keto bun recipes - see Playlist)

Baking Powder = 8 g / 2 tsp

Salt = 4 g / 1 tsp

WET INGREDIENTS FOR BREAD/BUN

Egg Whites = 3 large (107 g)

Apple Cider Vinegar = 15 ml / 1 tbsp

Hot or Boiling Water = 200 ml (2/3 cup + 2 1/2 tbsp)

INGREDIENTS FOR CREAM CHEESE FILLING

Cream Cheese (room temperature) = 180 g / 1 1/2 cups

Powdered Sweetener = 40 g / 5 tbsp (I used self-ground erythritol, but you can use any keto friendly powdered sweetener)

Whipping Cream = 30 ml / 2 tbsp

INGREDIENTS FOR BUTTER GARLIC SAUCE

Melted Butter = 150 ml / 2/3 cup

Whole Egg = 1 large

Whipping Cream = 50 ml / 3 1/2 tbsp

Minced Garlic = 2 to 4 tbsp (Depending how much you like garlic. I used more because I love garlic)

Salt = 3 to 4 tbsp (The sauce needs to be on the salty side as the bread will not absorb all of them)
