Ingredients
Scale
For the Roll-Ups:
- 8 oz corned beef, thinly sliced
- 1 cup sauerkraut, drained
- 8 oz Swiss cheese, sliced
- 4 large lettuce leaves (Romaine or iceberg)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
For the Coating:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the roll-ups.
- Prepare Mayo Mixture: In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until well combined, creating a flavorful spread.
- Spread Mayo on Lettuce: Lay out the lettuce leaves and spread a thin layer of the mayo mixture on each leaf evenly to add moisture and flavor.
- Layer Fillings: On top of the mayo-spread lettuce, layer the thinly sliced corned beef, drained sauerkraut, and slices of Swiss cheese for the classic Reuben taste.
- Roll Up: Roll the lettuce leaves tightly around the fillings, securing with toothpicks if necessary to keep them closed during cooking.
- Prepare Egg Wash: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to add flavor and help the coating stick.
- Coat Roll-Ups: Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, then thoroughly coat with almond flour to form a crispy crust when baked.
- Bake: Place the coated roll-ups on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Notes
- Ensure the sauerkraut is well-drained to prevent soggy roll-ups.
- Use Romaine lettuce for a sturdier wrap; iceberg works for a lighter crunch.
- To keep roll-ups intact, secure tightly and chill briefly if needed before coating and baking.
- The almond flour coating makes this recipe keto-friendly and low-carb.
- Adjust seasoning in egg wash to suit your taste, adding more spices if desired.
