Ingredients
Filling
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon ground
- 1/4 cup stevia or erythritol, granulated
- 1 ½ tablespoons coconut oil softened
Dry Ingredients
- 3 cups almond flour
- 3 tablespoons tapioca flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 eggs large
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Glaze
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup erythritol powdered
- 2-4 tablespoons milk or almond milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°Fahrenheit and spray a baking dish with a little bit of cooking oil spray.
- In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and granulated sweetener.
- To make the dough: use two mixing bowls. In the first bowl, mix all the dry ingredients until combined. In the second bowl, whisk all wet ingredients.
- Next, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until it starts forming a dough ball.
- Sprinkle some almond flour on a large piece of parchment paper and start rolling the dough into an 1/2-inch thick rectangle.
- Use a basting brush to evenly spread the softened coconut oil over the surface of the dough.
- Evenly sprinkle the oiled dough with the cinnamon mixture.
- With the parchment paper, roll up the dough. Slice into 12 rolls, then place them into the prepared dish.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden on top.
To Make the Glaze
- Use a hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sweetener, vanilla and 2 tablespoons milk. Beat until creamy, adding more milk a tbsp at a time, until it reaches desired consistency.
- Once the cinnamon rolls are done, allow them to slightly cool. Frost and enjoy!
Notes
- Don't over-mix the dough. Over-mixing the dough will affect how the cinnamon rolls bake.
- If you don't have keto maple syrup, then you can use Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener.
- You can use either dairy or plant-based milk to thin the glaze.
- Use almond milk instead of regular milk.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened before beating with a mixer.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
