I was blown away how delicious these little rolls came out to taste! Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Just perfect! Recipe adapted from A Girl Worth Saving. I’ll be making more soon 🙂 P.S. I modified the original recipe to my own liking and loved the way they turn out!

I’m so glad that they turned out perfect for you!
These are absolutely AMAZING!!! Thanks so much for sharing!
These sound fabulous! Think it would work to use parchment paper instead of greasing the sheet?
Yes, it will work perfectly either way. I have tried both ways 🙂
But today I ran out of parchment paper!))
What can I use instead of tapioca flour dont have any
You can’t really substitute tapioca flour. At least I never could.

You can substitute arrowroot powder (flour) for tapioca flour it does the same thing however arrowroot powder is a little less common to find and a lot more expensive than tapioca
I personally find that with tapioca flour this recipe does not taste the same. So it doesn’t do the same. Since tapioca and arrowroot flour are slight different.

Thank you so much! I have been craving pizza bagel bites and I think these will work perfectly as a healthy substitute!
Your welcome
Can a portion of the olive oil be substituted with grapeseed oil? It’s all I have at the moment and I really want to try this!!
Yes, you can use olive oil instead
😦
I have no idea what went wrong….
As soon as the tapioca flour was muxed in it turned into a yucky, stringy mess…
Yes, tapioca usually consistency sticky when you add it with liquids. That’s why I usually add olive oil to my hands when I work with tapioca flour and try to form into rolls or bread. Hope this tip helps!

Happy new year!)
I too had the same thing happen. I heated the oil, water and salt together until boiling. I removed the pan from the heat and added garlic and then the tapicoa flour, it cooked the tapicoa and all the mixing in the world did not help. The oil seperated and it was a mess. Is the water to be hot when tapicoa is added?
Maybe this video tutorial will help you to get the basics of it. I watched it before I’ve made my first batch and it was easy! I’m visual! Have to see it then it’s easy to make!
Hope it helps!

Thanks for the video and the quick reply. I will make again adding the boiling liquid to the dry ingredients. Thanks again.
Perfect rolls. Adding the liquid to the dry ingredients is the key. Thanks
Can I use extra tapioca flour instead of coconut flour? Its like impossible to find here so that’s all I have. And almond flour
Yes, you can use just tapioca flour.
Followed the recipe exactly and so far it’s a flop. They look like garlic cookies! 🙂 I had to add about 1/4 c extra coconut flour cuz you can’t knead liquid! Mixture was still to thin to knead but I could at least spoon it onto the pan. What did I do wrong???
Did you let it rest after you add tapioca flour, baking soda and tartar? At least 5-10 minutes. If you skipped that step, then that could be the problem.
I don’t think this is a good recipe for anyone attempting to restrict carbs.
Yes. It’s once in a while kind of food 🙂
