Sandwich Rounds {almond flour}

Aug 19, 2013 · 135 Comments

Sandwich Rounds in sandwich overhead image

Let's talk sandwich rounds.

There a couple of bread recipes in my cookbook, Cooking for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, that you can use to make sandwiches, including this recipe for flat rolls or sandwich "rounds". It produces a round piece of bread that tastes like a sweet roll, doesn't fall apart, and is easily tweaked to your liking. They don't have much elevation so they're not a typical roll, really more of a hybrid of a roll and a flat bread.

To create variety try different toppings. My personal favorite is a pinch of sea salt, poppy seeds, and sesame seeds. Onion and garlic bits or dried garlic powder would be good too. Sprinkle the topping after the rounds are poured onto the cookie sheets, and then bake. Read the recipe head notes to the recipe for tips on reducing the sweetness and adding an egg wash close to the end of the baking time.

My favorite use of these rounds is for panini or grilled sandwiches like the apple, cheese, mustard panini in the book and in the photo below. And here's a fun site for more panini ideas.

    Can these be made with psyllium husk instead of the eggs?

      Hi Beth, I haven't tried it yet, but it does work with flaxseed meal eggs so I bet it will work with psyllium husk. Let me know if you try it. Best, Erica

    These are really good. I eat them naked and think they're cake. Adding a dash of salt works with the soda to make them light and delightful. Thanks so much. Finally an almond bread I can love.

    Erica,
    Thank you for taking the initiative to create this recipe for your son. I hope he’s well.
    I have food allergies and am grateful to find recipes like this so I can enjoy eating normal meals again.
    I’ve been eating paninis for the first time in a decade using these rounds. I’m so appreciative.
    I will definitely purchase your cookbook.
    Cheers
    Victoria

    Doing them for dinner tonight. I wonder if you could check your cup/ g conversions in the recipe. I just made this and a cup of yoghurt is about 240 g. I made this using the 57 g of coconut milk but feel it maybe should be about 200g?

    I love this recipie & your cookbook! I recently had to cut out eggs. I've been looking at your egg replacement suggestions in the cookbook & in some SCD community forums, but not feeling confident about how to adapt things. Do you think gelatin egg or another SCD legal egg sub would work with these? I read don't try to sub with a recipie calling for more than 2 eggs. Do you have any advice for this recipie or in general? I consider you a genius! Thanks in advance!

      Thank you! I haven't tried using gelatin to replace eggs with this recipe. I would try cutting the recipe into a 1/3 and trying one egg to see if it works.

    Hello,

    Just wanted to let you know I have been making your recipe for sandwich rounds for about 6 months now. I love them. Today I made a few batches and forgot to add in the maple syrup. (I useUncle Luke's No.3 dark syrup) When the 1st batch came out of the oven I thought maybe it would be yummy to drizzle the rounds with syrup. Delicious!! Give it a try!

      Yes, the yogurt is probably too watery. You can drip it as if you were creating Greek yogurt (strained yogurt) or try leaving it out.

    Hi Erica, I have two sons. My younger son has Crohn's and is on SCD. My older son does not have health issues and still eats some foods that are not SCD legal. I have been wondering how hard it would be for my younger son if they had a friend over during meal time. I was concerned that I would need to feed the friend a meal that was not too odd for him. Which would leave my younger son watching his brother and their friend eating "normal food" while he ate his SCD meal. We had a friend over today during lunch so I tried this sandwich round recipe for grilled cheese and it totally made my whole week!!!! All of us tried them and everyone loved them. I could have surely made everyone's sandwich with these. Eating them made me never want to eat any type of traditional bread ever again. Thank you so much for allowing my son to have a moment of normalcy where he didn't feel like an outcast as he eats SCD food. Additionally, thank you so much for giving away so many free recipes on your site. I have not had the financial resources to invest in any SCD cookbooks yet so what we get on the web is it. We love your site and have enjoyed more of your recipes than any other in the past month. We really appreciate you!!!

    Made these today. Love them and so does my 4 year old son. Hubby felt they were too sweet so next time I'll cut the MS out so we can use them for burgers and sandwiches but for now they'll be great for breakfast for my son. FYI - my son has CF so the added wonderful fats is awesome!! Where else can you make a piece of "bread" with such a high fat value!!
    Wondering if anyone has ever added seasonings to the mix IE - garlic or italian??

      yes, they are on the sweet side of things, which can easily be remedied by reducing the sweetener or swapping in salt and spices (as you mention).

        I have been having difficulty finding a cookie recipe with the correct texture. I added in 1/2 cup honey, 2 cups chopped walnuts, 1 cup shredded coconut (I will probably add more next time), 1 tablespoon vanilla, 1/2 tsp salt. I finally have cookies I like! halved the yogurt since I was increasing the honey.

        Best basic recipe ever!

    I have made these with coconut milk and yogurt. I was very (pleasantly) surprised at the difference. The coconut milk recipe was much firmer-great for personal size pizza crust. The yogurt was much lighter in color and fluffier (turned the heat down in the oven to 300 degrees F for the second batch). Love this recipe. Going to try for cookies next with the honey, and maybe some nuts and dates.

    I used coconut/palm sugar (instead of honey) and regular milk in mine. Since they're cooked, the palm sugar works nicely. Also, it doesn't work well to spray cookie sheets, they spread out way more and still stick. The silpat ones came out much thicker and didn't burn like the others did.

    Yes you can use squash, and also sprinkle in some psylium husk as well instead of eggs. Binds everything nicely.

    Hope this helps, james

    You can substitute soaked, sprouted and dehydrated sunflower seed flour for almond flour
    in any recipe I've tried so far. Organic sunflower seeds are easier to come by and less pricey than almonds. I haven't tried this recipe with sunflower seeds yet, but will post once I do.

    ? for you....has anyone tried making this without the eggs? We have one with egg allergies, so wondered if I could use squash or some other liquid that might bind in place enough for these to work? She is also allergic to flax seed and other obvious egg substitutes.
    Thanks!

      Hi Tina. I haven't tried it but I'm curious to know as well. Great idea, please let us know if you do try it.

      I tried this today and subbed in tapioca flour for 1/3 of the flour total as I ran out of almond flour. I did not use eggs - just a splash of milk extra. They were absolutely perfect - soft enough to be yummy, but held together to the last bite of ham and cheese sandwich!

    THESE ARE FANTASTIC! I've been panini deprived since I went GF 18 months ago. I made 2 panini sandwiches this weekend, so far! Now I'm going to try a couple rounds for the burgers my husband is grilling...

    Thank you so much!

      yes, a reader said she had success mixing almond and coconut flour together (it's on facebook but I'll copy it here).

      From Karen: "I was short 1/2 c. of almond flour and replaced it with 2T. Coconut flour. They turned out great with a little bit lighter texture. I also topped some with cinnamon, they make a great quick breakfast to go."

    We used 1 cup of kefir and ended up with a pancake batter...we wondered if 1 cup of liquid was a typo? We ended up with one solid joined together "pancake" on the parchment paper and the rest of the batter we cooked in a muffin top pan and they turned out like muffins. They do taste good.

      We also added a 1/2 teaspoon of salt like we use in Elana's scone recipe.....

        the batter is like a thick pancake batter and that's ok, just measure out what you need (1-2 tablespoons for a round) and leave about 2 inches of space between rounds.

    OH. MY. WOW. I made this over the weekend, and it is spectacular! I say "this" and "it" only bc I ended up spreading the batter in to a long rectangular pan and then cutting it equally for sandwich tops and bottoms. It is even better toasted or pan "fried" 🙂 Making another batch today, only this time I am using a muffin top pan! Definitely a keeper <3

    How sturdy are these? I've been using the "Sandwich Buns" recipe from Melissa on Satisfying Eats and they're wonderful, but not very sturdy at all...they are a coconut flour/almond flour mix. 🙂

      I've only tested with almond flour so far, but I bet another nut flour or seed flour would work. Let us know if you try it.

    So what happens if you omit the sweetener? if you want it to be more like regular bread without a sweetness to it? Does it not taste good?

    I can't seem to get hold of blanched almond flour, and I've just read an article saying that too much almond flour is bad for you. I wondered if you have tried making this recipie with coconut flour, do you think that would work?

      Yes, you don't want to fill up on too much almond flour but these are quite thin and mostly egg and flour. That said, I avoid breads that are heavy on nuts as well, so I agree with you (that goes for cashews, almonds, pecans, and others). I would like to create something like this using coconut flour. Just hasn't happened yet. Best wishes.

      If you want to use coconut flour use the same amount as you would almond flour but you will need to add and extra egg, because it is a drier flour.
