Keto Milk Brioche Rolls (Gluten-Free)
These Keto Milk Brioche Rolls are the perfect low-carb alternative to traditional brioche, offering all the softness, fluffiness, and buttery goodness without the carbs. Ideal for those following a keto or gluten-free lifestyle, these rolls can be enjoyed as a side, used for sandwiches, or simply topped with butter. They provide that bakery-style texture and taste, but without the guilt!
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups almond flour (finely ground)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
- 1 tablespoon erythritol or your preferred low-carb sweetener (optional, for a slight sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder (optional, for added fiber and texture)
- Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and psyllium husk powder (if using). Stir well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
- Combine the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, almond milk, erythritol (if using), and vanilla extract (if using) until smooth and combined.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough should be thick but manageable. If it’s too sticky, you can add a little more almond flour or coconut flour to reach the right consistency.
- Shape the rolls: Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each roll.
- Optional – add sesame seeds: If desired, lightly brush the tops of the rolls with a little melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds for a more authentic brioche look and texture.
- Bake the rolls: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through. They should feel light and soft when touched.
- Cool and serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. These rolls are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
