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 Topping
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, parmesan cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to evenly distribute all ingredients.
- Add Wet Ingredients and Form Dough: Add the egg, shredded mozzarella cheese, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms that is slightly sticky but manageable.
- Shape Rolls: Using your hands, form the dough into small individual rolls, about 6 in total, and place them spaced apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the Rolls: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and feel firm to the touch, indicating they are cooked through.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: While the rolls bake, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned, to infuse the butter with garlic flavor.
- Brush Rolls with Garlic Butter: Once the rolls are done baking, immediately brush the tops generously with the warm garlic butter mixture to add a rich, savory finish.
- Serve: Serve the garlic rolls warm as a keto-friendly side dish or snack.
Notes
- You can substitute flaxseed with chia seeds if preferred.
- Ensure not to overbake or the rolls may become too dry.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top after brushing with garlic butter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat before serving.
- These rolls are best enjoyed fresh but can be frozen for up to one month.
