Carnivore Dinner Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
-
1 cup of crushed pork rinds (unflavored)
-
2 cups of shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
-
4 large eggs
-
2 tbsp of melted butter (or beef tallow, if preferred)
-
1/2 tsp of salt
-
1/4 tsp of garlic powder (optional, but it adds flavor)
-
1/2 tsp of baking powder (optional, for fluffiness)
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a muffin tin if you’re using it.
-
Crush the pork rinds: If you don’t have pre-crushed pork rinds, place them in a food processor or use a rolling pin to crush them into fine crumbs.
-
Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed pork rinds, shredded cheese, salt, garlic powder (optional), and baking powder (optional).
-
Add the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and melted butter together.
-
Combine everything: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until it forms a thick dough-like consistency.
-
Shape the rolls: Scoop out the dough and shape it into small round balls (about 1.5–2 inches in diameter). You should be able to make about 8-10 rolls depending on the size.
-
Bake: Place the rolls on your prepared baking sheet or in the muffin tin. Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown on top and firm to the touch.
-
Serve: Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. They are perfect as a side for your carnivore meals, such as with steaks, bacon, or eggs.
Tips:
-
You can make these rolls a little spicier by adding some cayenne pepper or hot sauce into the dough.
-
If you don’t want cheese, you can skip it, though the texture will be different.
-
If you’re sensitive to eggs, try using less or experimenting with other egg substitutes (though it may affect the texture).
Enjoy your carnivore-friendly dinner rolls! They should keep you full and satisfied while staying true to the meat-based, animal product-focused diet.
