Paleo Rolls 2.0 (Nut-free, Yeast-free, Coconut-free) | Cook It Up Paleo


A good roll is definitely a must in our house when the holidays roll around.  Before paleo, we would all eat Grandma’s delicious homemade whole wheat rolls, and before I was diagnosed with celiac, I definitely still cheated on Thanksgiving and ate one slathered with butter.

I’m now to the point where touching bread makes my hands itch and become red, so gluten rolls will never be an option for me.  I developed this recipe as a softer and lighter version of this recipe that I made last year:

Cassava Rolls 1.0

They were good but these are so much better not only because they rise higher and are lighter and softer, but because they are yeast and coconut-free!

As soon as my mother bit into one of these rolls fresh from the oven, she proclaimed it the best paleo roll that she’d ever had! I humbly agree, and my little sister loved them too.  These come highly recommended from the entire family and this is what we’ll be enjoying with our Thanksgiving turkey!

Pretty sure these would make LEGIT leftover turkey sandwiches too…

  • 1/4 teaspoon [url href=”http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E6BRUW/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000E6BRUW&linkCode=as2&tag=coituppa-20&linkId=UFIHTDOUZONP7WAG” target=”_blank”]salt[/url]
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8″x8″ glass baking dish with a bit of olive oil.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar.
  3. Add in the cassava flour, arrowroot starch, psyllium husk, salt and baking soda. Mix well. You can let and dough sit for a minute to thicken up if needed.
  4. Form the dough into 6 balls and place fairly close together in a baking dish (it’s nice if they touch when they bake to create an authentic “roll” shape).
  5. Bake for 20 minutes, or until they pass the toothpick test.
  6. Serve and enjoy!!

Notes
I have made these without the psyllium by using 1/2 cup of tapioca starch instead of the 1/3 cup or arrowroot.

  1. Sadly these didn’t work for me either…very sticky dough. And the rolls were dry and not very tasty.

  2. I’m trying to find a hot dog roll substitute… this looks like it might have a big crispier of an outside texture or maybe even be more biscuity inside. Any suggestions?

  3. Heather thanks for taking the time to put all of these amazing recipes together, I really appreciate it, saves from having to experiment on my own… lol… I made this recipe.. followed it to a T, being in Australia, I”m not sure if it was the flour, or something, but there was no way I could roll them, I added a bit more cassava flour and got them a bit firmer. I put them into the glass dish and have just taken them out of the oven. They rose beautifully, look a gorgeous golden colour and smell amazing, and taste fantastic. I have decided that if the are the same next time I will simply put them into a muffin try. Thanks again for all of your great recipes.

    • I’ve noticed that if people use a different brand of cassava other than Otto’s they usually need to add more flour to get the dough to be stiff enough. I’m glad that they turned out and thanks for your kind words! 🙂

  4. Methinks your family was being polite as these are quite simply the worst “rolls,” paleo or otherwise, that I’ve ever had the misfortune of tasting. And they look NOTHING like the pictures on your page. Almost makes me wonder if you wrote down the correct recipe? Mine resemble crumbly, heavy little garbanzo biscuits of some kind. They didn’t rise AT ALL, and they taste like baking soda.

    • Lol I wish my family was polite when taste-testing, but I assure you that their assessments of my recipes are always honest; often brutally so. I’ve made this recipe multiple times and they turn out well. I’m so sorry that the recipe didn’t work for you.

  5. Is the dough suppposed to be real sticky? I live at elevation so sometimes modifications are necessary.

  6. Could I sub gelatin eggs for the 4 eggs in the recipe? I’m hesitant to try since this recipe calls for so many eggs. I’m AIP and highly sensitive to egg yolks and whites.

    Thanks!

  7. Hi!
    These look amazing (as do all of your other recipes)! I have psyllium husk flakes vs. powder. Do you know an appropriate measurement for that substitution? Otherwise I’ll just experiment with it myself!
    Thanks!

    • The psyllium flakes tend to act like flax seeds in recipes rather than the amazingness that the powder brings to gluten-free doughs. I’d recommend getting some psyllium powder or you can sub 1/2 c tapioca starch and omit the psyllium and arrowroot.

  9. These look so good, Heather! How do you think they would do if made ahead, froze, and baked the day of Thanksgiving dinner?

  12. Oh my. I haven’t had a dinner roll in who knows how long! These look delicious! 🙂 Thanks for sharing them at Savoring Saturdays!

  14. Hi Heather:)
    These rolls look amazing!!! I was wondering if I can use another flour besides cassava since I cannot find it in the grocery store, I follow the Wheat Belly lifestyle. Cannot wait to try this recipe. Thank you…
