Ingredients

1 ¼ cup almond flour
5 tablespoon psyllium husk powder soluble fiber by now
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt by morton
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 cup boiling water
3 large raw egg
1 large raw egg, yolk
1 tablespoon whole milk
⅛ teaspoon coarse kosher salt by morton
1 teaspoon, whole pieces sesame seeds

Instructions

Preheat an oven to 350 F. Combine all dry ingredients together in the bowl of a stand mixer using a paddle attachment or by hand with a wooden spoon.
Add vinegar and boiling water. Then mix well in the stand mixer starting on low speed and then turning it to medium speed. Mix for 45 seconds to 1 minute.
Add the eggs and mix well for another 1-2 minutes.
It should look like this if you use a stand mixer.
Divide the dough into four parts. Wetting your hands between each piece of dough, make them into rolls. Wetting your hands before rolling each piece of dough will help it from sticking to your hands and results in a very smooth surface that looks like bread.
Make an egg wash by combining the yolk, milk and kosher salt together.
Brush this on top of each roll and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake in the oven for at least 50 minutes. They tend to look baked on the outside, but are under on the inside and will collapse if underbaked. Be sure to err on the side of caution and give them extra time if you are unsure. You will know when they are finished cooking as they do a final puff in the oven and you can see where the rolls have stretched.
