These gluten-free, egg-free, and yeast-free dinner rolls are made from soaked chickpeas and contain no starches or flour. They are higher in protein and lower in carbohydrates compared to other types of bread. Sprinkle each roll with a few pinches of flaked salt or your favorite types of seeds before baking for added flavors! The rolls can be sliced into halves and then frozen for later use.

1½ cups water
¼ cups extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar
½ cups whole psyllium husks
1 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoons sea salt

I did not plan ahead for tonight’s dinner too well. I tried this using chickpea flour and it came out remarkably well. Delicious, light and tasty!

Just made a batch of the rolls and I love how fluffy and soft they are, can't stop eating them! Will try adding herbs next time too.

Oh my! This was a pleasant surprise! I’ve always struggled with baking gluten free bread but this recipe is pretty much fool proof! I can’t believe how easy and delicious this is! Great job!

Absolutely delicious! So easy and quick to make. This is my go-to recipe. I make double the recipe in 2 bowls, one for the week, one batch for freezing. Also good with dipped in seeds before baking, e.g. sunflower seeds or everything-bagel herb mixture.

I was so excited to try this recipe because it's free of refined sugar, yeast, rice flours, and added starches. Finally, after many years of eating no bread, I have some that I can eat without ill effects! The texture is amazingly springy and soft (chickpeas?- who knew!), and the taste is reminiscent of homemade whole wheat bread. I may experiment by adding a touch of honey in the future, but the bread is good as it is, especially when cut in half, toasted, and used as sandwich bread.

I made this as dinner rolls but also use them in the morning for my quick meal before work by adding peanut butter and some jam. So good and my blood sugar remains stable for hours because of the high protein! They are so easy and fast to make too!
