I've been working on this recipe for the past few months, and I'm finally happy with the results. I wanted to create a paleo-friendly sticky bun that was both delicious and easy to make. I experimented with different flours and sweeteners, and I finally found a combination that I love. The almond flour and coconut flour give the buns a soft and chewy texture, while the tapioca starch and ground flaxseed help to bind them together. The coconut sugar adds a subtle sweetness, and the orange and pistachio give the buns a unique flavor. I'm so happy with how these buns turned out, and I can't wait to share them with you.
