Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the rolls evenly.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt, ensuring they are well mixed for even rising and flavor distribution.
- Whisk wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted coconut oil until fully blended, which will help create a smooth dough.
- Combine ingredients: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring well. Slowly add the warm water, mixing continuously until a dough forms that is firm enough to shape.
- Shape the rolls: Use your hands to form the dough into small, evenly sized rolls and place them spaced apart on a baking sheet to allow room for expansion.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through. Let them cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Warm water helps activate the coconut flour and creates a better dough texture.
- You can substitute melted butter for coconut oil if preferred.
- Ensure you do not overmix the dough to keep rolls light and fluffy.
- These rolls store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days or can be frozen for longer storage.
- For added flavor, try mixing in herbs like rosemary or thyme into the dough.
