I have tried several low carb breads with lots of almonds or eggs and apart from the time to make them this was by far the best in structure. Just ordered more flours now. First sandwich I’ve had in about a year so highly recommend getting one. Sort of thing you’d probably pick up 2nd hand just to give it a go..

Can you let me know which flours you used and where you got them from please?
 
Yes: soya flour - Holland & Barrett; ground flaxseeds - Aldi: Vital Wheat Gluten - specialist organic shop in town but Wholefoods online sell it. But the recipe is a bread machine recipe Edgar, Have you got a breadmaker?

Ah good. You’ve probably seen my post then with the recipe. I’ve got the texture down fine at moment just need to add a bit of salt as I omitted it per original recipe so this is recipes link BUT I would not add 2tbspn sugar or sweetener. Replace that with 1 tspn sugar and I think adding a teaspoon of salt would be good as mine was very bland. This is prof cheapest place to get wheat gluten http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/best-low-carb-bread-bread-machine-102631https://www.buywholefoodsonline.co.uk/gluten-1kg.html We can compare notes on 7th April
 
Been looking at breadmakers onilne today, so many choices.Any suggestions anyone?

WholefoodsCjwKCAjwhcjVBRBHEiwAoDe5x3J7hPPWJiqI6SxlM6zI2Ai2a1LHE This seems to be cheapest for vital wheat gluten online and it’s difficult to find in shops. Ground linseeds Aldi and soya flour Holland & Barrett - but you can probably get soya where you are!?

Thanks Sally, yes soya is readily available here and I did buy some ground flaxseed online haven't opened it yet 🙂
 
Just phoned Lidl and added another voice to the vote to get the low carb rolls back.
They were unable to confirm whether it is a temporary issue or permanent.
Anyone else up for phoning?

I’ve phoned but it’s a call centre with not much access to anything other than an offer to pass message on
 
Are they the same as the low GI rolls at the same price but round, as they had loads in my local Lidl today.

No, the low GI rolls are different. I bought a low GI roll to try, thinking it wouldn't raise my blood sugars. Was I wrong!:(
