- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 tbs xanthan gum
- 3 tbs monk fruit or granulated sweetener of choice
- 1 tbs baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbs warm water

Instructions To Make Chocolate Sticky Buns
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9 inch pie dish or casserole dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together your tapioca flour, almond flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl combine your melted butter, sweetener, eggs, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract.
- Add your wet ingredients to your dry mixture and mix until combined, your dough will be sticky.
- Add 2 tbs warm water to your dough and mix well. Let your dough rest for 5 minutes to firm up. While your dough rests melt together all of your filling ingredients in 30 second increments until smooth and set aside.
- Now make your topping by whisking together all of your ingredients and spread evenly on the bottom of your greased dish.
- On a piece of parchment paper, spread about 1 tbs of tapioca flour so it covers about 8X12 inches. Take your dough and place it on your working surface, cover with parchment paper and roll your dough with a rolling pin into a 8X12 even rectangle.
- Spread your filling mixture evenly over your dough, leaving at least a 1/2 inch around the edges.
- Using the short side (the 8 inch side) carefully roll your dough rectangle into a log. Cut into nine equal pieces. Place your rolls in your greased dish and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- Allow your buns to cool for about 10 minutes and then carefully (with oven mitts on) flip your dish over onto either a baking sheet or parchment paper so your delicious sticky bottom can run over the buns. Serve immediately, warm.
