Diabetic-Friendly Soft Dinner Rolls (Low-Carb)
These rolls are soft and fluffy like traditional milk buns — but made without white flour or sugar, so they’re better for blood sugar control.
🛒 Ingredients
- 2 cups fine almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp psyllium husk powder (helps texture)
- 3 large eggs
- ¼ cup melted butter (or olive oil)
- ⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

- Combine wet and dry ingredients. Let the dough rest 3–5 minutes to thicken.
