Ingredients

BUNS

2 egg whites at room temperature
2 eggs (white and yolk) at room temperature
2 cups / 200g almond flour
¼ cup / 60g butter melted
4 tbsp / 20g psyllium husks or 2 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon xanthan gum
pinch of salt
½ cup / 120ml warm water

HOT DOG FILLING

6 medium gluten free good quality sausages 300g
¼ cup red cabbage shredded (18g)
¼ cup white cabbage shredded (18g)
¾ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoon parsley chopped (11g)
1 tablespoon sugar free ketchup
2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180 Celsius / 160 Fan / 350 Fahrenheit.
Make the Low Carb Hot Dog Rolls as per my almond flour bread recipe up to step 4. Split the dough into 6 and shape into small hot dog rolls. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for about 35 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Whilst the rolls are cooking, place the sausages on a baking tray and bake as per the cooking instructions on the packet, depending on the thickness of your sausages this will be about 20-30 minutes.
To make the slaw, simply combine the cabbage and parsley with a little olive oil.
Stuff the Low Carb Hot Dog Rolls with slaw and top with a gluten free sausage and a drizzle of sugar free ketchup and mustard.
