I had to get these keto dinner rolls on the blog because the holidays are sneaking up on us so quickly!
I honestly feel like it was New Year's Eve, I blinked, and BAM holidays!!
So now I am scrambling to get gifts for the grandkids, make treats for everyone, plan out my decorations (which means my hubby's Honey-Do list is growing), watch every holiday movie I can possibly watch, and the most important thing....plan out the holiday menus.
You know, the important holiday stuff, right?
Anywho, for the past few years, I have completely forgone rolls at the holidays. Why?
Heck if I know!
I mean, I knew all about fathead dough, and how it makes wonderful keto pizza crust, super tasty keto flatbread, etc but just never put 2 and 2 together to make keto dinner rolls with it.
This year will be different. Now that I know how awesome fathead dinner rolls are, and how ridiculously easy to make they are, I will be noshing to my heart's content on them!

FAQ about Keto Dinner Rolls
Yes, just warm them in the microwave for 30 seconds, or in a warm oven. Room temp/cold rolls are very dense.
Yes, I have made it with cheddar and it works well. I would think any comparable cheese, like jack cheese, Swiss, gouda, etc would work. Just realize the flavor of the cheese you choose will change the taste of the roll. Mozzarella is a very bland cheese.
Leftover rolls can be stored in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 1 week. You can also freeze them by placing the rolls in a ziplock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months. Thaw completely before reheating.
