Super Quick Low Carb Bread / Buns

2 teaspoons coconut oil or butter
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water or almond milk
1/2 tablespoon parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons almond meal, blanched
1 tablespoon flax meal
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Dash salt
 

In a bowl, place coconut oil. Microwave 15 seconds. 
Add egg, and milk or water, then parmesan cheese, almond meal, flax seed meal, baking powder, salt, and Splenda.
Whisk ingredients together until well combined. (Or electric mixer with whisk attachment)
 
I like to spread this in a pre-sprayed sandwich container. (The kind kids take sandwiches to school in.) 
Microwave uncovered 1 minute to 1 1/2 minutes, or until set.
The cooking time may vary for different microwaves.
Allow to cool slightly. Then, using a sharp bread knife, slice in half horizontally.
Toast in a bread toaster (setting should be higher than for regular bread) until browned.
 
You can also make multiples at the same time in an oven. You just have to find oven safe containers for it to cook in. Large muffin tins work okay but they're small. Mini pie tins might work better. I haven't tried it.
Put 1/3 cup of batter in each tin.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
