Guest guest Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi Terry: Not completely sure, first I am not an experienced baker, I used to make an occasional boxed cake or put frozen cookie dough on a baking sheet. However this was my third attempt, I followed the guidelines to add eggs after other ingredients, then moved batter from processor to mixing bowl and gradually folded in the almond flour. Maybe the gradual mixing of the flour helped. This time the rolls actually have some fluff or air to them and resemble hamburger buns. Initially found this diet and all the cooking intimidating but I am starting to really enjoy my time in the kitchen & also helps when it seems my daughter is looking a little bit more like herself everyday. Maybe my joy of cooking is making better results as well. I also made eggplant parmesan using lois lang's bread recipe, then slicing and toasting the bread to make bread crumbs. One of my friends who is a very good cook is going to use some almond flour and attempt to make a pasta or noodle substitute, we'll see : ) in the meantime we have become very fond of the zucchini noodles. > > , > > What do you think you did differently in the third batch. if I may ask? > > Terry > beautiful sandwich rolls > > > Just want to share my joy . . . These are from the recipe in BTVC, first two batches resembled small dark brown pancakes, third attempt at sandwich rolls and today they are beautiful, fluffy actually look like mini sandwich rolls, and taste good too! Could work for small hamburgers, blt, and other sandwiches, yipee > > Now I am inspired and glad I ordered the 25lb of Honeywell Almond Flour : ) > > Blessings to all and special blessings to those celebrating the New Year, to perfect health and happiness. > > > Daughter 17, CD 6/09 > SCD 9/09 > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 I'm not far enough along to bake yet, but I am an experienced regular baker. It is a common technique to fold dry ingredients into beaten egg whites. The egg whites provide lightness and fluffiness -- think angel food cake. So although I'm not sure if you were folding the almond flour into beaten egg whites or beaten eggs, either way I think you did the right thing to keep the batter lighter.
