Low carb bread? Try Oopsie rolls!

[Sherrie]

Remember the Atkins revolution rolls?

Well an online friend of mine was making them one day and stuffed up on the recipe in which they turned out so well they are currently a big hit amongst US low carbers. She has totally revolutionalised the revolution rolls, so much so that people are coming up with all sorts of recipes that they can use these rolls for, from savoury to sweet it is not funny!

Heres some pics she sent me after I started harassing her about them:

Cheeseburger:



French Toast:



Cream Puff:




This is her base recipe for the rolls:

Cleochatra's Best Ever Revol-Oopsie Rolls


3 large eggs
1 pkg Splenda
dash of salt
pinch of cream of tartar
3 ounces cream cheese (not Tbsp!) Do not soften!

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Separate the eggs and add Splenda, salt, and cream cheese to the yolks. Use a mixer to combine the ingredients together. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff (if you're using the same mixer, mix the whites first and then the yolk mixture). Using a spatula, gradually fold the egg yolk mixture into the white mixture, being careful not to break down the whites. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray and spoon the mixture onto the sheet, making 6 mounds. Flatten each mound slightly.

Bake about 30 minutes (You want them slightly softer, not crumbly). Let cool on the sheet for a few minutes, and then remove to a rack and allow them to cool. Store them in a bread sack or a ziplock bag to keep them from drying out.

I will put some of these recipes in individual posts for reference as well, plus will resize some of these pics in a sec. Keep an eye out on her blog, because lots of people are sending her recipes and pictures, as well as her making up her own variations so I am sure she will be posting more recipes and pics. I was looking on low carb friends a couple of days ago and heaps of people were raving about them there.

Plus, don't forget she has other great recipes as well as a fantastic sense of humour: Lighter Side of Low Carb

Cleo, sent me some info on how she stores her oopsie rolls:

As for storage and freezing:

I store them in a zip lock bag with the bag open partially (this way they breathe and don't go over moist and keep them in the fridge. Then, when you want to use them, take them out and set them on the counter for 15-30 minutes or until they are room temperature. This makes them more 'dry' and less sticky.

As for freezing, I tried freezing and they do freeze. This time you want to close the ziplock when storing (I only store two per bag). To thaw, let them rest on the counter until room temperature in the bag with the bag open. When they're close to room temperature, set them outside of the bag so that they can 'dry' out slightly for use.

These look fantastic! - I might try and make them for lunch now

[Alies]

They look good.

How many grams is a pkg of splenda?

I assume 300 degrees is fahrenheit...what's the celsius?

[Sherrie]

1 packet = 2 teaspoons, I have the conversions here: Measurements and Conversions

[Prothvar]

Dont quote me but I think its just about 150 degrees

[Prothvar]

I just made these and they really are as good as all that - they are now in my permanent recipe book and we are having hamburgers for tea

[Sherrie]

I am going to tell Cleo

[Prothvar]

truly the woman is a genius .. I ate one plain and had to stop myself from having a second (im not all that hungry only had lunch not long ago)

[melvan]

I gotta try these...

[Sherrie]

Just be careful with keeping these in perspective, e.g. don't overeat!!!

Might be best off going straight to freezer until needed

[Prothvar]

do they freeze though??

[Sherrie]

I assume so, freeze one and see

[LC_Dave]

They look very yum!

[Prothvar]

the burgers turned out brilliantly - I am in LOVE with these

[zedgirl]

Did you leave out the Splenda when you made them for hamburgers?
