Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
In another bowl, mix the warm water with the honey until dissolved. Add the instant yeast, stir, and let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Add the olive oil, ground flaxseed, and chia seeds to the yeast mixture. Stir well to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix thoroughly with a spatula until a dough begins to form.
The dough will be sticky. Lightly oil your hands with a little olive oil and knead the dough inside the bowl for about 1-2 minutes until well combined.
Divide the dough into 8 even pieces. With oiled hands, shape each piece into a roll and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each roll.
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes; they don't need to double in size, but they should puff up slightly.
Uncover the rolls and place them in the preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow when tapped underneath.
Remove from the oven and let the rolls cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your heart-healthy, gluten-free rolls as a side dish or a sandwich base!
