Keto Buchi is a delicious Filipino snack that is traditionally made with glutinous rice flour and filled with sweetened mongo (mung bean) paste. This keto version replaces the glutinous rice flour with low-carb almond flour, making it suitable for those following a ketogenic diet.

Salt1/4 teaspoon
Melted Coconut Oil2 tablespoons
Water1/4 cup
Sugar-free Mung Bean Paste1/2 cup
Instructions
- 1In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
- 2Add the melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly.
- 3Gradually add water to the mixture while stirring continuously until a dough forms. You may need to adjust the amount of water slightly depending on the consistency of the dough.
- 4Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.
- 5Flatten each ball of dough using your palms or a rolling pin, making a small indentation in the center.
- 6Place a teaspoon of sugar-free mung bean paste in the center of each flattened dough.
- 7Carefully fold and seal the dough around the filling, ensuring it is fully enclosed.
- 8Heat a pan with enough cooking oil for deep-frying over medium heat.
- 9Once the oil is hot, carefully add the filled dough balls to the pan, a few at a time, and fry until they turn golden brown. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- 10Remove the fried Keto Buchi from the pan and drain excess oil on a paper towel.
- 11Serve the Keto Buchi while still warm.
