Also sometimes called Oopsie bread, or cloud bread, this is a grainless bread substitute
It doesn't rise much, but works well as a replacement for things you'd normally use bread rolls for, particularly as buns around a grilled chicken breast, just make sure the filling sits well with a slight egg flavour
This recipe grinds black pepper over the top, but you can sprinkle seeds instead if preferred
