Equipment
- Oven
- Medium bowl
- Large bowl
- Spatula or wooden spoon
- Baking Sheet for rolls
- Small loaf pan 7x3 or 8x4 inch, optional for loaf
- Muffin tins optional
- Parchment paper or grease/almond flour for pan
- Wire rack for cooling
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat recommended
- 2 cups almond flour finely ground
- 2 large eggs room temperature recommended
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional, for savory rolls
- 1 teaspoon onion powder optional, for savory rolls
- 1 tablespoon olive oil optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). If making rolls, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If making a loaf, grease and flour (with almond flour) a small loaf pan or muffin tins.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, and olive oil (if using) until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate, larger bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and any optional garlic or onion powder you're using. Make sure the baking powder and salt are evenly distributed.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, mix everything together until it forms a cohesive dough. Don't overmix; mix just until no dry streaks remain.
- The dough will be soft and a little sticky. If making rolls, scoop or spoon portions (about 6-8 small rolls) onto your prepared baking sheet. You can gently shape them into rounds with lightly wet hands if you like. If making a loaf, spoon the dough into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Pop the baking sheet or loaf pan into your preheated oven. Bake the rolls for about 25-30 minutes, or the loaf for 30-35 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through. A toothpick inserted should come out clean (internal temperature should reach about 200°F/93°C).
- Let the bread or rolls cool on the baking sheet or in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Or, enjoy warm!
