Normally the word āKetoā and āRollsā wouldnāt be in the same sentence, unless the sentence is āyou canāt have rolls on a keto diet.ā Sometimes you just need some bread and this Keto Dinner Rolls recipe is wonderful! Take these rolls out of the oven and add some extra butter on them and watch it meltā¦.yum.
I hadn’t been on the Keto diet very long and I soon learned that I missed my bread. So, this recipe has been a life saver for me.
I have made this recipe into Keto Cinnamon Rolls After you try baking these Keto dinner rolls then you should definitely try these Cinnamon Rolls, they do take a little effort, but are really worth the time.
Also, I have created a sandwich recipe with this dinner roll. It is a Keto Pork Chop Sandwich, with an almond breaded pork chop, Keto Cole Slaw and sugar free Barbecue sauce on a toasted keto dinner roll.
But, before we talk about this recipe, letās learn more about the keto diet, because it is much more than eating a lot of BACON, LOL!
What is the Keto Diet?
