Instructions how to make twisted keto breadsticks

• Preheat oven to 350 F
• Place the flax seeds, almond flour, and psyllium husks into a bowl.
• For best results make sure you use whole psyllium husks. Using whole husks makes the batter more compact and flexible.
• Add the ground chia seeds. To grind them, use a blender and pulse until powdered.
• Pour in the water and mix until well combined using your hands. If needed, add a few more tablespoons of water.
• Be careful not to use too much, or the dough will get too sticky and difficult to roll. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes at room temperature.
• Cut the dough into 3 equal pieces.
• Place a piece of the dough between two pieces of baking paper and roll out until the dough is thin ( 1/2 inches).
• Alternatively, use a nonstick silicon covered roller and a silicon mat. My roller is of wood. 🙂
• Take out one piece of paper
• In one cup mixed together water with cayenne pepper
• Spread over the dough with a pastry brush.
• Sprinkled with sesame seeds
• Cover with a paper

• The other side spread with a mixture of sweetener and water using a pastry brush.
• And sprinkle with poppy seed
• Cut into the sticks And twist every stick
• Place on the greased baking sheet or layer with baking paper.
• Bake in well-heated oven 30 minutes
