Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need for 4 servings (yields 4 rolls):

• 1 ½ cups blanched almond flour

• 2 tablespoons coconut flour

• 1 tablespoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (for structure)

• ½ teaspoon sea salt

• 2 large eggs, room temperature

• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

• 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter

• ⅓ cup boiling water

• Optional: 1 tablespoon sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning for topping

Tools You’ll Need

• Mixing bowl

• Measuring cups and spoons

• Baking sheet

• Parchment paper

• Oven (preheated to 350°F / 175°C)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. This blend ensures your rolls are soft yet structured.

Step 3: Add the Wet Ingredients

Add the eggs, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well to form a dough. It might look slightly crumbly—don’t worry!

Step 4: Bring It Together

Slowly pour in the boiling water while stirring. This activates the xanthan gum and helps create that fluffy texture. The dough will come together and become slightly sticky.

Step 5: Shape the Rolls

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. With slightly wet hands, shape them into round rolls and place on your prepared baking sheet.

Step 6: Add Toppings (Optional)

Sprinkle sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning on top for a gourmet finish.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch. Let them cool slightly before serving.

Tips for the Best Keto Rolls

• Room temperature eggs help the dough mix more evenly.

• Boiling water is crucial—don’t skip this step!

• Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month.

How to Serve Your Keto Rolls

• With Soup: Perfect for dipping into creamy tomato or chicken soup.

• For Sliders: Slice them in half and add your favorite keto-friendly fillings.

• With Butter: Serve warm with a pat of salted butter or herb spread.

• Mini Sandwiches: Great for meal-prep lunches with deli meats and cheese.
