Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 3 large egg whites
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the water, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients while stirring until a thick dough forms.

Step 5

In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the dough mixture, incorporating them evenly.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each into a ball, placing them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

With a sharp knife, gently score each roll with an 'X' on top to help them expand while baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
