Making these paleo and keto hot dog buns is incredibly simple, but, as with any yeasted bread, they require you take care of a few details to ensure the best possible outcome.The nice thing about these guys too, is that they didn’t fall at all post bake for me, truly great. Their size vs a sandwich loaf clearly does help with the lack of structure of grain-free flours.The yeast also ensures a wonderful texture and taste. And note that you won’t get that gummy and wet texture here of most low carb breads. Plus, as mentioned, I’m baking at high altitude- so if we can make this keto sandwich bread work so can you.

*Before you scream sugar remember that yeast feeds on such sugar to emit carbon dioxide and make your bread rise, so it doesn’t affect the final carb count much (if at all). And yes, this is science.
**If paleo (or in keto maintenance), feel free to sub 1/4 to 1/2 cup of almond flour with arrowroot flour for a lighter crumb.
Please note that nutrition facts were estimated per hot bun, and I found the recipe to yield 6-8 buns. And, per usual, keep in mind that grain free baked goods are very filling!
