Ingredients
- 3/4 cup (180g) quark cheese / 3/4 cup (180g)
- 3/4 cup (90g) oat flour / 3/4 cup (90g)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (for greasing baking sheet)
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the perfect baking environment for your rolls.
- Create the Dough In a mixing bowl, combine the quark cheese, oat flour, egg, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly until a smooth, consistent dough forms.
- Shape the Rolls Lightly grease your baking sheet with olive oil to prevent sticking. Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions.
- Form and Arrange Shape each portion into a round roll. Place the rolls carefully on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
- Bake to Perfection Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes. Look for a golden brown color as your indicator of doneness.
- Cool and Serve Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. This helps them set and makes them easier to handle.
