A simple recipe for homemade almond flour pasta. It’s great for those on a gluten-free diet or want to try something new.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almond flour;
  • ½ cup psyllium (or 1 tsp. xanthan gum);
  • 2 eggs (or 3-4 tbsp. water for vegan version);
  • 1 tsp. olive oil;
  • ½ tsp. salt.

Preparation:

  1. Mixing ingredients

In a bowl, combine the almond flour, psyllium (or xanthan gum) and salt. Stir to combine.

  1. Adding liquid ingredients

Beat in the eggs and add the olive oil. Stir with a spoon or your hands until the dough is smooth and thick. If the dough is too dry, add a little water (1 tbsp at a time).

  1. Roll out the dough
  • Form the dough into a ball, cover with clingfilm and let it rest for 10 minutes to make it more elastic.
  • Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment to a thickness of 2-3 mm.
  1. Shape the pasta

Cut the dough into strips 5-8 mm wide (for tagliatelle) or use a pasta mold to make noodles or ravioli.

  1. Boiling the pasta

Boil the water, add a pinch of salt and a little oil. Lower the pasta into the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft but firm.

Serving

Serve immediately with your favorite sauce: pesto, cream sauce or tomato dressing.

Enjoy!
