I found multiple recipes on the Internet that are very similar. But I was not happy about how the noodles were holding together. I experimented replacing coconut flour with other ingredients like psyllium husk or add more eggs. But in the end, wheat gluten worked the best. This brings this great recipe to a whole new level. But just like the original, I would suggest making it fresh or it may turn slimy. You want to get oat fiber that doesn’t taste rancid and is a white flour color. Don’t get oat flour or it is not longer low carb. For Spätzle I use a hand press like a potato ricer. For noodles or spaghetti, I use the Kitchen Aid pasta attachment.
Ingredients: 2 tbsp (18g) glucomannan powder 4 tbsp (24g) oat fiber 1 tbsp (12g) baking powder 1/2 tsp (3g) salt 1 tbsp (12g) wheat gluten 3/4 cup (180ml) water, hot 1 large egg
I heated the water for 1 minute in the microwave.
Add the egg and immediately the water and whisk vigorously and fast because it will pull together in seconds. Form a ball and place in your extruder to form the noodles. Press the noodles on a cutting board and let rest for 8 minutes. The glucomannan needs this time to stabilize.
Drop everything in nearly boiling water for 1 minute or shorter until done.
I use a frying spoon to move everything in cold water and then to a colander.
