FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of almond flour?

While almond flour works best to keep this recipe keto-friendly, you can substitute it with a small amount of regular flour, but the texture and carb count will change.

How do I ensure the roll ups get crispy?

Make sure to spread the mixture thinly and bake until golden brown; brushing with the beaten egg also helps achieve a nice glossy, crispy finish.
