GARDEN DINNER ROLLS
This recipe is for the bread lovers. Often, we can have a lot of resistance to a new way of eating because it challenges the way we prepare food. Many people are used to having bread with their meals- as toast, sandwiches, rolls with dinner, biscuits with soup- it is a regular part of their diet.
These rolls are light and fluffy in texture, but contain none of the grain, dairy or sugars that most breads do. They also have a soft, nearly nutty taste, avoiding the eggy-ness of most paleo breads. Quick and easy to prepare, enjoy them fresh out of the oven as a nutritious part of any meal.
Ingredients
- 4 cups riced cauliflower
- 1 cup Almond Meal
- 4 Eggs separated
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
Instructions
- To rice cauliflower, rinse and chop into florets. Put into food processor and pulse until smooth and resembles rice. Pour into large bowl and fluff with fingers.
- Preheat your oven to 400 ? and prepare a regular baking tray with a piece of parchment paper.
- Separate the eggs and pour the whites into a chilled bowl. Whip the whites until they are stiffened and no liquid remains at the bottom of the bowl.
- Add the dry ingredients to the cauliflower and mix everything together well, still using a fork to keep the cauliflower separated.
- Add the egg yolks and stir in briefly until they are evenly mixed in and the dough is moist. Then add the egg whites and gently fold into the dough with a spatula for a few seconds.
- If you are trying the tea biscuit version, sprinkle in the coconut flour now and again gently stir as needed.
- Take about ½ cup of the wet dough in your hands and gently mold it into a ball. Make 8 balls.
- Place the balls onto prepared baking sheet and slide the tray into the oven for 20 minutes. The rolls are ready when they are golden brown on top.
- These are delicious right out of the oven, and extras can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. They can also be made and sliced ahead for freezer storage.
