Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Paleo Cauliflower Steamed Buns
  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, and salt for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine cauliflower rice, eggs, avocado oil, honey, chives, and carrots. Mix until well incorporated.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing gently until combined into a sticky batter.
  4. Prepare Steamer: Set up your steamer with water at a gentle simmer, placing parchment paper in the trays to prevent sticking.
  5. Form and Steam Buns: Drop spoonfuls of batter onto parchment, steam for about 15 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the buns to cool for 5 minutes before serving warm with desired fillings.
