Instructions

Instructions are for 10 servings. Please modify as needed.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.
Bring the water to a boil. Add the vinegar and egg whites to the bowl while whisking with a hand mixer for about 30 seconds. Don't overmix the dough; the consistency should resemble Play-Doh.
Form with moist hands into 10 pieces and roll into hot dog buns. Make sure to leave enough space between them on the baking sheet to double in size.
Bake on lower rack in oven for 40-50 minutes. They're done when you hear a hollow sound when tapping the bottom of the bun.
Serve with good quality hot dogs and toppings of your choice. Store the buns in the fridge or freezer.

Might want to use some of that egg yolk to glaze the tops of the buns, and sprinkle on some sesame seeds.

That would be an excellent add to transition these to hamburger buns.

Hello, Pray you and your Beautiful family are doing well. I made your bread recipe, Hot dog buns hamburger buns, and other thing with the dough, it was delicious, so puffy Soft and good, I made again yesterday, Only I really messed up I was reading from a different recipe and added xanthan gum, I was so upset I tried to take what I could out but I could not get all of it out, did not want to throw it away so I went ahead and proceed with the recipe but they did not turn out as they should have, still not horrible, but flat, is there any way to make them puffy again, I’m assuming it’s because of the xanthan gum is there something I can do to counter act The xanthan gum, I Premade three bags of the dry ingredients to make for future recipes. Any thoughts on the matter is there any rescue for me I cannot throw all that almond flour mixture’s away. Many many Blessings to you all

Hi, Leona! A small amount of xanthan gum shouldn't be a problem. It's possible that you overmixed the dough, but you can also try adding a small amount of cream of tartar to the egg white mixture.

I never have luck with the buns or bread. I watched Maria's video today, weighed the ingredients...still gummy after 1 hour and 35 min. at 350. I wish I knew how to fix this problem!

Are you baking on the lower rack? Ovens can vary, so it may simply take a bit more time.

Hello! Hollow buns are usually a sign of overmixing the batter.

These buns were great! I did 8 rolls so we could make Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. Do you have any tips on how to keep your psyllium husk powder from turning the whole thing purple??

Try looking for a light or blonde psyllium.
