Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 units Mashed ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 unit Egg white
- 1 cup Olive oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
In another bowl, mix mashed bananas, cinnamon, nutmeg, chopped walnuts, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin rectangle on a floured surface.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the banana mixture onto one end of each dough rectangle. Roll up the dough tightly around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go, making sure there are no gaps.
Seal the edges with a bit of egg white to ensure the rolls stay closed during frying.
Heat 1 cup of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the rolls, a few at a time, frying until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Optional: Lightly dust with powdered erythritol before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your sugar-free dessert rolls!
