Ingredients

  • 13 cup (1¾ oz.) ground psyllium husk powder
  • 1¼ cups (5 oz.) almond flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tsp cider vinegar
  • 3 egg whites
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Bring the water to a boil.
  3. Add vinegar and egg whites to the dry ingredients and combine well. Add boiling water while beating with a hand mixer for about 30 seconds. Don’t over-mix the dough, the consistency should resemble Play-Doh.
  4. Moisten hands with a little olive oil and shape dough into 6 separate rolls. Place on a greased baking sheet. Top with optional sesame seeds.
  5. Bake on a lower rack in the oven for 50-60 minutes, depending on the size of your bread rolls. They’re done when you hear a hollow sound when tapping the bottom of the bun.
  6. Serve with toppings of your choice.

Can I substitute ingredients?

In all baking, and especially in low-carb baking, the ingredients and amounts used are important. The eggs and ground psyllium husk are hard to replace in this recipe.

If you don’t like almond flour or if you have an allergy, you can make this recipe with coconut flour instead. Substitute the amount of almond flour for a third as much of coconut flour and double the number of egg whites.

Flavor your bread with your favorite seasoning to make them perfect for whatever you’re serving them with. You can use garlic powder, crushed caraway seeds, or homemade bread seasoning.

Why did my keto bread turn purple?

Do your buns end up with a slightly purple color? That can happen with some brands of psyllium husk. Try a different brand.
