Keto Cinnamons Rolls


Ingredients

Dough:
  • 60 grams coconut flour about 1/2 cup
  • 1/4 cup low carb sweetener
  • 2 tablespoon baking powder can be cut in half to reduce sodium but may not rise as well
  • 250 grams mozzarella cheese shredded about 2-1/2 cups
  • 55 grams cream cheese 2 ounces
  • 3 large eggs beaten
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted, add a bit more if needed and use unsalted to reduce sodium
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Filling:
  • 1/4 cup brown low carb sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons butter softened (can be omitted but gives a better filling taste)

Icing:
  • 3 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 tablespoons butter softened
  • 1/4 cup low carb powdered sweetener
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • low carb almond or coconut milk if needed

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and grease a 9×13-inch pan baking pan if needed.
  2. Mix coconut flour, low carb sweetener, and baking powder in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Melt mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in microwave on high power for one minute. Stir.
  4. Place back in microwave on high for another minute. Stir.
  5. Add in beaten eggs, butter, vanilla extract (if using), and coconut flour mixture until a dough is formed. Dough should be a bit wet and sticky. If dry, try adding in another egg or more butter.
  6. Roll dough out into a rectangle about 9×12 inches.
  7. In small bowl, combine the brown low carb sweetener with cinnamon.
  8. Spread butter evenly over the dough then sprinkle the cinnamon mix on top.
  9. Roll dough into a log starting at one of the shorter ends. Slice into 1-inch thick rounds.

  11. In a medium mixing bowl, cream the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer.
  12. Beat in the powdered sweetener and vanilla extract. Add in a little low carb milk (coconut or almond) if needed to thin the icing.
