Ingredients

  • 1 pound green beans
  • 1 cup cream of mushroom soup (this Healthy Mushroom Soup is a great alternative--follow directions in the post)
  • 3/4 cup finely-ground almond flour
  • 1/2 cup onion (thinly sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted--see vegan alternative in Recipes Notes)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (divided)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine butter, almond flour, and ½ teaspoon salt and stir.
  • Toss the onion slices in the mixture to coat them.
  • Place the green beans, garlic powder, remaining salt, and cream of mushroom soup in an 8x8 baking dish and stir.
  • Top green beans with onion mixture, then cover and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the cover and bake for 20-30 minutes longer, until almond flour becomes brown and slightly crispy.

Notes

  • AIP: For AIP, use organic tiger nut flour instead of the almond flour.
  • Cream of Mushroom Soup: If you would prefer to buy Cream of Mushroom soup, here is a healthy option, but it might not meet your dietary needs.
  • Finely-Ground Nuts: You can substitute finely-ground soaked nuts for the almond flour.
  • Homemade Garlic Powder: My Homemade Garlic Powder is a good option if you would like to make your own garlic powder.
  • Palm Shortening: You can use palm shortening instead of butter for a dairy-free option.
  • Vegan: Use coconut oil in place of butter and vegetable broth for the Chicken Broth in the Cream of Mushroom Soup. This Broth Powder is a great option for this purpose
