Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Garlic Butter Glaze
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the rolls.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, ground flaxseed, parmesan cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the seasonings.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, shredded mozzarella, and melted butter to the dry mixture. Stir everything together until a dough forms that is cohesive and easy to handle.
- Shape Rolls: Using your hands, form the dough into small individual rolls and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the rolls have turned golden brown and feel firm to the touch, indicating they are cooked through.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: While the rolls are baking, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Brush Rolls: Once the rolls come out of the oven, immediately brush them generously with the garlic butter mixture to add flavor and moisture.
- Serve: Allow the garlic rolls to cool slightly before serving warm as a delicious low-carb bread alternative.
Notes
- You can substitute shredded mozzarella with other cheeses like cheddar for a different flavor.
- Make sure not to burn the garlic when sautéing; cook it just until fragrant.
- These rolls freeze well; reheat them in the oven for best results.
- Adjust the garlic powder and minced garlic amounts to your taste preference.
- To keep the rolls softer, store them in an airtight container once cooled.
