    Hello, noodle heads. 👋

    Today I’m going to show you how to make quick and easy low carb Psyllium Husk Noodles out of four basic ingredients.  It is truly amazing what some eggs, cream cheese, and a little bit of Psyllium Husk Powder can do.

    💬 Keto dieters often ask

    What is Psyllium Husk Powder?

    Psyllium Husk Powder is a type of flour made from pulverized Psyllium Husk shells.  It is nearly all soluble fiber, so this flour is often used in Keto baking because it has very few net carbohydrates. And it also acts like gluten to make chewier low carb bread. 

    How many carbs are in Psyllium Husk?

    One teaspoon contains 8g total carbs, 4g fiber, 0g fat, 0g protein, and 15 calories. So that makes 4g net carbs.

    What are the Psyllium Husk Powder benefits?

    It has been shown to lower cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol, so it is great for heart health.  And it has even lowered blood glucose levels in Type 2 Diabetics. It forms a gel with liquids that slows down glucose absorption in the digestive tract and so it improves blood sugar levels.

    Because of its high fiber content, Psyllium Husk Powder is the active ingredient in the laxative, Metamucil.  This is a food post, so I am not going to get into the health benefits of a fiber supplement.  Let’s just stick a pin in it and say that Psyllium Powder is often used to promote “regularity”.    

    Can you use Psyllium Husk Powder for baking?

    Yes, low carb baking is the number one use for the powder. As I said earlier, Psyllium Husk Bread is low carb, but has a very good chew to it, just like normal bread. In addition to Keto bread, you can make high-carb favorites like bagels and pizza crust as well. It is often used in conjunction with almond flour and coconut flour.

    Is Psyllium Husk Keto?

    It is not only allowed on Keto, it is encouraged! There are so many uses for it in the Keto diet. In addition to baked goods, you can use it to make noodles. Let me show you how to do it.

    🥣 Ingredients

    • Cooking Spray- Aerosol spray cans are fine, or you can use the oil of your choice in a spray bottle.
    • Cream Cheese- Use full fat cream cheese for this Psyllium Husk recipe because it's always a good idea to get a little more fat in when you are doing Keto.
    • Eggs- Always use size large eggs when making recipes. That's the standard size that recipe makers use for their proportions.
    • Salt- Regular iodized salt will do, but you can get fancy with your salt if you like.
    • Psyllium Husk Powder- Make sure to buy powdered Psyllium Husk. If you only have whole Psyllium Husk, then you can grind it fine in a coffee grinder before measuring it out.

    🟪 Purple Haze?

    Warning: Sometimes Psyllium Husk recipes can turn purple. Do not panic. It'll taste the same but just have a highly unusual hue.

    Ingredients.

    📖 Instructions

    1. Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees F.  Line a large rimmed cookie sheet with a silpat cooking mat (recommended) or a sheet of parchment paper.
    2. Spray with cooking spray.
    3. Add eggs, cream cheese, and salt to a food processor or high-powered blender and process until smooth, 1 minute.  Add Psyllium Husk Powder and process for 1 minute more.
    4. Quickly spread the mixture onto the cookie sheet with a spatula.  Spread the batter from edge to edge.  Add a piece of parchment paper on top and use a roller to flatten out the batter more.  Leave the parchment paper in place.
    5. Bake for 10-12 minutes until firm, but not browned.
    6. Allow to cool enough you can handle the sheet of noodles.  Roll the sheet of dough tightly and then slice it into individual noodles.

    🍝 Serving Suggestions

    These low carb noodles can be eaten just like you would any other noodle. The texture of the noodle holds the sauce very well.  And if you add some sugar-free tomato sauce, you’ll have a 5g net carb dinner that is ready in less than 30 minutes. Make yourself some classic chicken noodle soup.  Or even use the noodle dough to make a fancy Beef Stroganoff.

    Once you’ve got this Psyllium Husk recipe, the World is your oyster.

      I made these noodles today. Could I use these in a tuna casserole? Would they get gummy or mushy?

        Sure, you could use the noodles for tuna noodle casserole. Here's my low carb version that uses Great Low Carb Bread Rotini. Just substitute in a few batches of the psyllium noodles and you should be good. https://www.resolutioneats.com/blog/tuna-noodle-casserole/

      If you make a dish like lasagna or any other saucy dish and have leftovers, will the noodles turn to mush after a day or 2?

          That's normal. All psyllium husk powder is some shade between brown and purple. It really just depends upon the brand that you chose.

        Yes. Just cut them into wider strips and they will be great in lasagna.

        These noodles won't work for that, but you could try some from the gnom-gnom blog:

        You can keep these noodles in the refrigerator for 3-5 days before using them. Just warm them with the sauce or soup that you want to eat them with.

      Once the noodles are cut how do you use them? Boiled in water as you would other noodles?

        Once the noodles are cut, then they are ready to use as-is. They are not hard noodles that need to be boiled. All you need to do before serving them is to heat them through. So add them to soups, as the last ingredient, or warm them together with sauces.

      Hi 😀 do these noodles stand up in boiling water? If so how long?

        These noodles are fully cooked after you bake them, so you don't need to boil them in water. But they will hold up well in hot soups, if that is what you are asking. They should be the last ingredient added to a soup, because they just need to be warmed through.

      I used parchment paper on top and on the bottom and it worked great. Why is the silpat mat recommended?

        Yes, using parchment for both the top and the bottom is fine. I've found that the silpat has more grip than the parchment though, so it's easier to spread out on the pan evenly.
