Don't waste the yolk! Use it to make Hollandaise Sauce, Garlic Mayonnaise or Lemon Curd!

Want to make these as part of your meal prep routine? This recipe is easy to scale up! Simply make 4-8 servings at once by combining everything in a mixing bowl, then add the wet ingredients. Use a hand whisk or an electric mixer to combine. Transfer into individual ramekins or a large muffin pan. Bake the muffins in the oven preheated to 175 °C/ 350 °F (fan assisted), or 195 °C/ 380 °F (conventional) for 15-20 minutes or until cooked in the centre.

Ingredients (makes 1 muffin)

1 large egg white
¹/₄ cup almond flour (25 g/ 0.9 oz)
1 tbsp coconut flour (8 g/ 0.3 oz)
1 tsp psyllium husk powder
2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk or water (30 ml)
¹/₂ tsp gluten-free baking powder

Instructions

Separate the egg white from the egg yolk. Reserve the yolk for another recipe.
In a small ramekin or a mug, all of the dry ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium powder, baking powder and salt).
Add the wet ingredients (egg white plus almond milk or water) and mix until well combined and a dough forms. Microwave for 1 minute, repeat in 30 second increments until firm (2-3 minutes).
Tips for cooking in the oven: If you don't have a microwave, I suggest you make 4-8 servings at once. Preheat the oven to 175 °C/ 350 °F (fan assisted), or 195 °C/ 380 °F (conventional) and cook for 15-20 minutes or until cooked in the centre.
Use a spatula to loosen the edges and invert. Slice in half and toast if desired.
Serve immediately with some butter and berry jam (here we used Blueberry Chia Jam), or with cream cheese and other savory toppings such as smoked salmon, ham or cheese.
Store at room temperature in a container loosely covered with a lid for 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
