Seeded Dinner Rolls

The delicious rolls are made using my Peggy's Sliced Bread Batter. I chose a square pan and sprinkled my seed/spice mix on top. I topped mine with my 8-Seed version of Victoria Gourmet's 7-Seed Crust spice blend: http://www.vgourmet.com/7-Seed-Crust/p/VIC-00143&c=VictoriaGourmet@SeasoningBlends plus a few nigella seeds. Sometime I add sunflower seeds to the top, just because they are so good on crackers and breads.

The wells of my non-stick pan measure 3/4" deep. However, rise is very minimal as it is with many low-carb products. Paper liners are not recommended for breads with a high egg content, as you won't be able to get the delicious brown crust on the bottom. To avoid tearing the bottoms, I gently coax them out of the pan using a knife after they have cooled. You could also drop them by the spoonful (20 mounds), as they have a texture very similar to biscuits. Due to the flour in Carbquick, these are only suitable for the grains rung on OWL. The Victoria Gourmet website did not have nutritional information for the spice mix I used. I therefore calculated 1 gram per higher carb seed listed on my bottle. You don't need to worry about the topping because you are only getting a few carbs if you divide it into 20 portions.

You can also use these to make delicious little finger sandwiches with your favorite meats for parties! Two of these made me the most delicious mini-BLTs for lunch. There are so many possibilities!

INGREDIENTS:

8 oz. cream cheese, softened

4 large eggs, beaten

1 c. Jennifer Eloff's Splendid Gluten-Free Bake Mix: http://low-carb-news.blogspot.com/2011/04/im-very-excited-to-unveil-my-splendid.html

Carbquik Bake Mix (substitute half a cup more Jennifer's mix if you want a gluten-free version).

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. Baking powder

1/4 tsp. Salt

You can use any seed/spice blend you like (I prefer my 8-Seed Spice Mix).

DIRECTIONS Pre-heat oven to 350o. The cups of either a square or round non-stick muffin pan should be oiled. In a medium bowl, soften the cream cheese and then beat in the eggs until they are smooth. Stir in all the dry ingredients. Use a 2T. Dip the batter (round in the measuring cup) into muffin cups. The batter is very thick and sticky. You will need to scoop it out using your finger. The amount of batter should be sufficient to make about 20 rolls. Nutritional stats are calculated based on this number. I used a round butter-knife to try and spread the batter evenly in each cup. Bake for 20-22 minutes at 350o. Check at 20 since ovens vary. Don't overbrown them or they'll dry out. Then, remove them from the pan and let them cool down a little before using a knife to gently pry them out. Wait a few minutes before removing any more if the first one has a small tear on the bottom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the first keto week the most difficult?

Preparing for the first week of a keto diet is often daunting. It involves significant lifestyle changes and forces most people to step out of their comfort zone. It can be daunting to realize that you have to say goodbye high-carb meals.

But don't fear! You can make this one of the most fulfilling weeks of your entire life with the right information. It's possible to survive on the ketogenic Diet, but also thrive with consistent effort and dedication.

The key is to start slow - transitioning onto any new dietary plan takes time. As you adjust to this low-carb lifestyle, you might feel groggy. Don't worry! Healthy fats and low-sugar veggies will replenish your energy while helping you keep your portion sizes under control.

It is important to remember that this won't last forever. Once your body adjusts, your cravings for high sugar carbs will ease. Hunger will naturally subside and your metabolism will remain energized throughout your day.

Mental fortitude and concrete steps can make a huge difference in making the daunting task seem less daunting.

Can you eat oatmeal on keto?

Finding answers to unanswered queries can be hard. And when it comes to finding the right food choices for the keto diet, many still feel overwhelmed and lost. Especially with items like oatmeal, which is full of carbs.

You can still eat oatmeal, but it's possible to make a keto lifestyle out of oatmeal. It all depends upon what kind of oatmeal you purchase and how often you eat.

You need to look at the ingredients, such as nuts, seeds and other low-carb add-ons, that are combined into one deliciously nutritious dish. Pure oatmeal is rich in fibre and protein. However, they do not compromise the keto diet.

It's important to monitor your portions when you add oats to the daily menu. Don't try to run a marathon. Or eat too many of those overnight bowls. Use self-control. You can control your portions and still maximize flavour potentials with innovative ingredients such as coconut cream, chia seeds, or cinnamon powder.

When done correctly, oatmeal can offer an unusual breakfast option in a Keto diet. Don't let anyone tell your tastebuds that you have to stick to your principles. Proper prepping can yield serious results.

Can I cheat one day on keto?

It's never been easier to explore options that break the rules. It's easy to get distracted by the flow of information and want to know if there are ways you can cheat for a day or stretch your diet. All while keeping your health streak.

The truth is, however, not what you might expect. There is no room to compromise when it comes down to keto. To reap the full benefits of keto, you must strictly adhere to your diet. This will allow you to maintain long-term weight loss and good health.

Cheating on keto may derail any headway you've made toward your goals and discourage results as fast as you were able to achieve them. Eating something greasy or sugary signals your body that it does not need it and undermines the effects of the shift away from such foods on keto.

It can be more difficult to avoid occasional lapses than sticking to a diet. This is why it is important to evaluate the impact of certain factors such as age, activity level, genetics, and hormonal balance.

Although temptation often clouds judgment while making decisions, ultimately, only you know what is best regarding lasting well-being.

Can I drink alcohol on a keto diet?

A sensible approach to the keto diet is to question what you can or cannot do while limiting carbohydrates. Consuming alcoholic beverages is something that should be considered.

The short answer is that it all depends. Many alcoholic drinks are not suitable for keto, and some may be more keto-friendly than others. You can determine whether alcohol consumption has an impact on your daily carb intake by looking at factors such as sugar levels, grain content, and the type of alcohol.

You need to make wise choices and be aware that even though an alcoholic beverage may not have visible carbs, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's compatible with keto. It might increase your blood sugar levels. You should also consider other aspects, such as the calorie content, before you make your decision.

Moderation is key to maximizing the positive effects of alcohol while on a low carb diet. This will help you avoid potential drawbacks that could hinder your weight loss or fitness goals.

Information is key to making better decisions. Be sure to read all the details before you make a low-carb decision.

What is an example of a ketogenic meal?

The ketogenic diet makes it easy to eat. Think of it like regular healthy eating, but with a twist. One twist is to eliminate processed carbs and replace them by high-quality oils and fats.

You'll reap the many health benefits of this diet, including improved energy levels, better cognitive performance, and improved digestion. You'll also be able enjoy delicious, high-quality meals made with great-tasting ingredients.

What is a good example of a ketogenic meal? It could be like grilled salmon served over fresh kale sprinkled with parmesan cheese, paired with roasted cauliflower drizzled in olive oil, and topped off with freshly cut herbs for flavour. Perhaps it's an overflowing omelet with bacon bits and flavorful bell peppers. All cooked up in your favourite buttery sauce.

Understanding macro nutrition is essential to understand what Macros are on the Keto Diet.
