    Grain Free Butter Top Dinner Rolls.

    Grain free butter top dinner rolls that are low carb, paleo, and primal.

    Low carb gluten free, butter top dinner rollsPin

    These Dinner Rolls are low carb and paleo bread rolls with butter brushed on top and baked.

    They are also good with optional melted cheese on top for primal or low carb or keto diets.

    A kind viewer that knows I have tummy issues from Xanthan gum, had recommended that I try psyllium husk powder in my bread recipes instead.

    So, I tried using it in these rolls and found that works well in baking, and did not upset my tummy.

    I found the psyllium husk powder on Amazon, but it is also carried at most health food or natural food stores in the supplement section. It is a high fiber seed husk-like flax seed.

    These made an easy to work with dough that had a wonderful texture. The bottom of this post has some links to some great ideas for using leftover egg yolks.

      A question re the egg whites. Given that they aren’t whipped, is there any reason not to use whole eggs? Say 3 or 4 whole eggs instead of 6 whites? I’m curious about what the whites add that whole eggs would not.

        The egg whites tend to be lighter than the yolks in bread recipes even without whipping them.

      These look lovely! Pinning to try soon!

      I love your website. We eat very similar to the way you do--mostly Paleo, except for a few organic dairy products. We tend to use low-carb sweeteners as well instead of the Paleo sweeteners.

      I sure do appreciate all the work you do coming up with grain free and low carb recipes! As a former biscuit lover, giving up grain has been, well, not hard, but unsatisfying would be a better adjective. Thanks again for your work.
