Ingredients
1
cup
almond flour
4
tbsp
psyllium husk
1
tsp
baking powder
1
pinch
sea salt
½
cup
very hot water
about 100 ml
3
egg whites
or 1 whole egg + 1 white
2
tsp
sesame seeds
Instructions
In a bowl, mix the almond flour, psyllium, baking powder, sea salt, and spices.
Add the egg whites and mix with a fork until combined.
Slowly pour in the hot water while mixing with your hands until a dough forms.
Shape the dough into a cylinder, let it rest, then divide into 4 equal portions.
Form small rolls, flatten slightly, and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 30 minutes.
Let the rolls cool on a wire rack before serving.
Optional: brush with beaten egg before adding the seeds for a golden finish.
Notes
The psyllium husk is key. Don’t skip it, as it holds the dough together and gives the bread its structure.
Almond flour varies in humidity. Adjust with a little more or less water as needed.
Add spices depending on whether you want savory rolls (oregano, thyme) or a more neutral bread to combine with sweet spreads.
Serving ideas: Slice and toast them, spread with butter, avocado, or sugar-free jam. They also work well as a side for soups and salads.
