Enjoy the comforting taste of fresh bread without kicking yourself out of ketosis with these soft, fluffy Keto Bread Rolls. Perfectly low in carbs and rich in healthy fats, these rolls are an excellent choice for anyone following the ketogenic diet.
Why Choose Keto Bread Rolls?
Traditional bread is often off-limits on keto due to its high carbohydrate content. These rolls replace wheat flour with almond flour and coconut flour, providing fiber and healthy fats with minimal carbs. Almond flour contains just 6 grams of net carbs per 1/4 cup, making it a keto-friendly alternative. Plus, with protein-rich mozzarella and cream cheese, these rolls keep you full and satisfied.

Ingredients
- 1⅓ cups almond flour
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese (part skim)
- 2 oz full-fat cream cheese
- 1½ tablespoons aluminum-free baking powder
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 3 large eggs
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF (177ºC).
- In a clean bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and mozzarella. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then microwave again for another 30 seconds. Repeat until cheese is completely melted.
- Using a food processor, combine the melted cheese, eggs, and flour mixture. Process at high speed until the dough is smooth and uniform. The dough will be sticky.
- Knead the dough into a ball. Lightly oil your hands to handle the dough, then divide into 8 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a ball and place them about 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of each roll.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the rolls turn golden brown.
- Allow rolls to cool before serving.
Tips for Perfect Keto Bread Rolls
- Use freshly shredded mozzarella for better melting and texture.
- Keep your hands slightly oiled while shaping to prevent sticking.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure even baking and browning.
