Description

Navigating the initial phase of a ketogenic diet can sometimes bring about a temporary dip in energy levels as the body adjusts. This recipe offers a flavorful way to help replenish essential electrolytes. These savory rolls incorporate sodium within the dough and a crispy pork rind topping, delivering a satisfying and beneficial boost.

Traditional bread achieves its signature texture from gluten, a protein developed through wheat-based flours. In ketogenic baking, where wheat flours are avoided, achieving a similar airy and chewy quality requires thoughtful ingredient choices. This recipe embraces this challenge, employing alternative ingredients to mimic the delightful sensation of gluten.

Ground flax or chia seeds contribute to a lighter, fluffier texture compared to recipes relying solely on almond flour. The addition of xanthan gum, gelatin, and pectin enhances the dough's elasticity and structure, ensuring a pleasing bite. These elements work together to create rolls that are not only keto-friendly but also boast a delightful texture.

The result is a batch of golden-brown rolls, perfect for accompanying soups and stews, creating miniature sandwiches, or simply enjoying as a savory snack. The subtle pork flavor in the topping complements the soft, yielding interior, creating a harmonious balance of textures and tastes. These keto rolls are a comforting and nourishing addition to your ketogenic journey.

Instructions

    1.
    Make the dough recipe at least 4 hours before you wish to back your rolls. You can also prep the dough in advance and either freeze or store it in your refrigerator. In a mixing bowl, mix together the almond flour, paleo flour, ground flax, sesame seeds, baking soda, and egg. Set the bowl aside. In a small pot over low heat on the stove, melt the mozzarella and cream cheese together until they have melted into a creamy, solid white cheese.
    2.
    Let the cheese cool for about 60 seconds. Then, fold the melted cheese into the mixing bowl of flour and egg. Continue folding the dough over with a spatula until the dough is free of streaks. You can also knead the dough on a clean surface. Place the dough in plastic wrap, flatten the dough into a rectangle, and wrap airtight. Store the dough in your refrigerator for at least 4 hours to chill.
    3.
    When you re ready to work with the dough, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In one container, whisk together an egg white until it s frothy and loosened. In another container, arrange finely ground pork rinds. Pull the dough out of your refrigerator and divide it into equal portions. Roll 1 portion per serving in a ball-shape or another classic dinner roll shape of your choosing. Additionally, prepare a sheet tray lined with parchment paper or have a non-stick sheet pan ready to go.
    4.
    One by one, brush the egg white over the top and sides of each roll. Then, pick up the roll and press it into the ground pork rinds. Make sure all the sides brushed with egg white are coated in pork rinds. Arrange each bread roll on your prepared sheet tray. Sprinkle parsley over the top of each roll and lightly press it onto the pork rinds. Bake the tray for 25 minutes. Cool briefly before serving.
