I’m calling these sandwich rolls, but feel free to use them in any way you’d like. They make great buns and are equally good as toast and french toast.
You probably already know what you’re going to do with them, however here are a few ideas that I’ve enjoyed so far…
- slicing them in half
- eating them whole
- slathering them with butter
- toasting them and slathering them with butter
- building peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
- covering them with everything bagel topping
I use blanched almond flour however feel free to use cashew flour or other nut or seed flour.
As for the pan type, I use large muffin pans, however you can use any kind of pan you like, including a donut pan to make bagels or bagel rolls. Just make sure the pan is non-stick. Silicon molds or pans work as well.
Sandwich Rolls
This recipe is from my cookbook, Everyday Keto Baking, page 65.I recommend using a non-stick muffin top pan or muffin rings to bake the rolls since the dough is not firm but thick and pourable. I also recommend sprinkling the top of each roll with bagel seasoning such as Trader Joe’s Everything but the Bagel Seasoning before you place the pan in the oven to bake.If you prefer you can use baking powder in place of baking soda. If you find them a bit dry, you can add 1 additional tablespoon of milk, or use heavy cream instead of milk.You can make this dairy free by using olive oil or coconut oil in place of butter.

What can you use in place of butter? My son cannot digest butter.
I haven’t tried it yet but I bet coconut oil or shortening would work. I think olive oil will work as well.
Can I substitute SCD yogurt for the almond milk? (
I love your cookbook and your recipes here. They always turn out and they’re always good! Thank you!
Yes! You can. Thank you!!
Can you use coconut flour? Also, what I use if I don’t have that kind of muffin pan?
You can’t replace the almond flour with coconut flour, sorry. That would be a different recipe.
What is the calorie and nutrition values in these?
Thank you!

Thank you!! We needed a new sandwich rounds recipe that doesn’t call for yogurt as we stopped making the SCD yogurt. My son will be happy to be able to make his sandwich rounds again in his muffin-top pan,
We so appreciate your recipes and love your cookbooks!
Best,
Gina
