- 1 cup tapioca starch/flour
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil
For the FIlling & Dipping Sauce
- 1/2 cup Low FODMAP passata

Instructions
Prepare Your Dough
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Prepare one baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca starch/flour, mashed sweet potato, salt and garlic-infused olive oil. Mix until mixture is thoroughly combined. Separate dough into three parts and roll each into a ball.
- Sprinkle tapioca flour over a large sheet of parchment paper to prevent sticking. Place one dough ball in the center, and place another piece of parchment paper on top to cover. Gently press down on the dough to secure in place before using a rolling pin to roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick.
- Peel off the top layer of parchment and, using a pizza cutter or long knife, cut the dough into your prefered size, no smaller than 2x2 inches and no larger than 2.5x4 inches. Note: Keep in mind that larger rolls may add 5-10 minutes of baking time.
- Gently transfer each piece to baking tray, leaving a 1/2-inch of space between each piece. Repeat the process with the other dough balls. Mid-way through processing the dough, place the second batch of pieces on another piece of parchment if needed. Pro Tip: Make the second batch of pieces slightly larger than the first to make sealing the pizza rolls easy.
Prepare Your Filling Station
- In a small bowl, combine passata with dried basil and oregano. Cut pepperoni slices in half if needed/preferred. Have shredded cheese on the ready.
- On the bottom of each piece, smear a dollop of passata, leaving 1/4-inch of the edge clean to make sealing easy. Add 2-3 slices of pepperoni in the center. Add another dollop of passata on top, spreading slightly. Add a couple of shreds of cheese. Repeat for all pieces.
- To seal, gently layer a slightly larger piece of dough over the filling. Use your fingertips to gently press the edges down to seal with the bottom crust, from outside to in (this helps keep the filling inside).
Bake & Serve!
- Bake for 15-25 minutes (depending on the size of your rolls), until the edges are slightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve alongside the remaining passata mixture as a dipping sauce, heating the sauce if you prefer.
Notes
- If using store-bought garlic-infused oil that is not certified FODMAP-friendly, make sure to use a brand that doesn’t list “garlic oil,” “garlic essential oil,” “garlic essence,” “garlic flavoring,” “natural roasted garlic flavor,” or anything similar in the ingredients list. There’s no way to know whether these ingredients are low FODMAP. More on that in this article on FODMAP Everyday.
- Make sure your passata does not contain any high FODMAP ingredients like garlic or onion.
