We are loving hot chicken broths, country style soups, and slow cooker meals at the moment! So todays recipe is the perfect accompaniment to these meals, especially for those missing their bread side dish!
These roles are crusty on the outside, and soft and chewy on the inside. I think anyone on a grain free or AIP (autoimmune paleo) diet will love them!
They are still high carbohydrate, so if you are trying to lose weight, be sensible and don’t over do it!
Bon apatite!
Ingredients
- 180 g green plantain flesh
- 60 g coconut oil
- 140 g cassava flour

- Blend again speed 8/8 seconds, scrape down the sides.

- Tip the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently. If it feels too wet add more cassava flour bit by bit. Knead lightly with floured hands if it sticks to your hands.
