Making low carb simple

Instructions

Instructions are for 10 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.

  2. Bring the water to a boil. Add the vinegar and egg whites to the bowl while whisking with a hand mixer for about 30 seconds. Don't overmix the dough; the consistency should resemble Play-Doh.

  3. Form with moist hands into 10 pieces and roll into hot dog buns. Make sure to leave enough space between them on the baking sheet to double in size.

  4. Bake on lower rack in oven for 40-50 minutes. They're done when you hear a hollow sound when tapping the bottom of the bun.

  5. Serve with good quality hot dogs and toppings of your choice. Store the buns in the fridge or freezer.

What do I do with the extra egg yolks?

What do you do with the three egg yolks –béarnaise sauce, of course! Check out our recipes for traditional béarnaise and chili-flavored béarnaise sauce.

    Might want to use some of that egg yolk to glaze the tops of the buns, and sprinkle on some sesame seeds.

    That would be an excellent add to transition these to hamburger buns.

    Hi, Leona! A small amount of xanthan gum shouldn't be a problem. It's possible that you overmixed the dough, but you can also try adding a small amount of cream of tartar to the egg white mixture.

    Are you baking on the lower rack? Ovens can vary, so it may simply take a bit more time.

    Hello! Hollow buns are usually a sign of overmixing the batter.

    These buns were great! I did 8 rolls so we could make Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. Do you have any tips on how to keep your psyllium husk powder from turning the whole thing purple??
