Keto Pepperoni Rolls Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons of Dried Instant Yeast
- 2 teaspoons of Inulin
- 2 tablespoons of Warm Water
- 1 ½ cup of Almond Flour
- 2 teaspoons of Xanthan Gum
- 2 tablespoons of Salted Butter
- 3 cups of Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- 1 large Egg
- 8 ounces of Pepperoni, thinly sliced
How to Make Keto Pepperoni Rolls
- In a small bowl, add the yeast, inulin, and water. Mix well and set aside in a warm place to proof.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the almond flour and xanthan gum, mix well and set aside.
- In a nonstick saucepan, add the butter and mozzarella. Place over medium-low heat, until the cheese has fully melted to a pouring consistency, be sure to keep stirring to ensure it doesn’t start browning.
- Add the melted cheese to the almond flour, along with the proofed yeast, and egg. Mix until a sticky dough has formed. I recommend popping on a foodsafe glove and mixing by hand.
- Cover the dough with a clean cloth and place in a warm spot to proof for 1 hour.
- Divide the dough into 16 evenly sized balls.
- Roll each ball out, between 2 piece of parchment paper, into a round disc about 6mm/.025in thick.
- Layer slices of pepperoni in the center, around 4-8 depending how large your slices are, and roll up like a scroll, tuck the sides in as you go. Repeat with all the dough balls.
- Place the rolls, seam side down onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and place in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 190C/375F.
- Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown and puffed up.
- Allow to cool for 15 minutes before enjoying!

where do you buy inulin. I have never heard of it and can it be omitted from a recipe? I live in Canada.
Hi Deb,
You can get inulin from most health food stores or online. Inulin is a low carb substitute for sugar, which is used to feed the yeast and help it rise. I don’t recommend leaving it out, as, without it, the rolls won’t rise at all.
