Here you go - by the way, you can usually find things like this in the Recipes thread - or search the site

OOPSIE ROLLS

3oz cream cheese
3 eggs
pinch of cream of tarter
some salt
1 tbsp ground flaxseed

separate the eggs, whip the whites with the cream of tarter until stiff. Mix the yokes with the, salt, flaxseed and cream cheese. When the whites are really stiff, fold them into the yokes. (I fold my cream cheese mix into my whites) then place on lined baking sheet in either rounds which need to be flattened (so they look like baps) or you can make one large one in a rectangle and bake for 25 mins in oven mine is a fan so i do it at 160

take out and cool a little and peel off the backing sheet

you can add a little splenda and cinnamon, or just experiment with them.

Updated with a few more ideas. There are over 60 meals listed now - ready for anyone who thinks Atkins food must be boring!

...

I don't have any cream of tartar, but google says baking powder is a mix of baking soda and cream of tartar... Do you think it's gonna be oh to make oopsie rolls with baking powder or just omit cream of tartar from the recipe til I get some??? Hope this makes sense :/

Hmm dunno tbh - but give it a shot and see what happens - you might find it improves the recipe

Louise, I don't put any raising agent in as I don't like the taste. Mine have always been ok, but I don't know how they compare to those with it in iyswim!

Great thanks, I'm gonna give them a whirl without then, but that was my dilemma how will I know what they are supposed to look like normally haha x
