Psyllium Husk Keto Rolls - Soft, Chewy, and Low-Carb

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups (175 g) fine blanched almond flour
  • 5 tbsp whole psyllium husk (not psyllium powder)
  • 2 tsp baking powder (aluminum-free preferred)
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 3 large egg whites (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup (240 ml) boiling water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter (plus extra for brushing)
  • Optional: 1 tsp sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat and prep: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly oil the parchment to prevent sticking.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk almond flour, psyllium husk, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined and lump-free.
  • Add egg whites and vinegar: Pour in the egg whites and apple cider vinegar. Stir with a spatula; the mixture will look crumbly at first.
  • Hydrate with boiling water: Carefully add the boiling water and olive oil. Stir quickly and thoroughly. The dough will thicken within 10–20 seconds and become pliable.
  • Rest the dough: Let the dough sit for 2–3 minutes to fully hydrate. This rest makes shaping easier and improves texture.
  • Shape the rolls: With slightly damp hands, divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each into a smooth ball and place on the prepared sheet. For sandwich-style rolls, gently flatten to about 1 1/2 inches thick.
  • Finish the tops: Brush lightly with olive oil or butter. Sprinkle sesame seeds or seasoning if using. Score a shallow X on top with a sharp knife for a classic look.
  • Bake: Bake for 45–55 minutes, until the rolls are firm, deeply golden on top, and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  • Cool completely: Transfer to a wire rack and cool at least 20–30 minutes. Do not cut while hot; the steam continues to set the crumb.
  • Serve: Slice and enjoy with butter, sandwich fillings, or soup. Toasting enhances the crust and brings out a wheat-like aroma.
