Keto Cinnamon Rolls

Keto Cinnamon Rolls are an ideal low-carb solution to a typical comfort food yearning. These rolls are soft, golden, and packed with a lovely swirl of cinnamon and butter, making them taste exactly like classic bakery rolls. We prepare the roll’s dough with mozzarella, almond flour, and cream cheese, resulting in a fluffy texture. We make these rolls naturally sweet with Erythritol, which makes these rolls keto-friendly while satisfying a sweet tooth. Top these rolls with a cream cheese frosting, which tastes rich and decadent without throwing your diet off track. Keto Cinnamon Rolls, whether eaten hot from the oven with coffee or saved for later, fit within a low-carb diet without compromising flavor.

INGREDIENTS:

CINNAMON ROLLS:

• Two tbsp. cream cheese
• One large egg
• Two tbsp. butter
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese
• 2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract

GLAZE:

• 2 tbsp. heavy cream
• 2 tbsp. Erythritol powder

INGREDIENT NOTES:

ALMOND FLOUR:

• The base for the dough is almond flour, which keeps it low in carbs and gluten-free. It produces a soft, sensitive texture and a slight nutty flavor. This makes it an excellent substitute for regular wheat flour.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

• Mozzarella cheese adds flexibility to the dough and helps it hold together. It creates a stretchy feel similar to gluten when melted. It also provides richness without adding carbs.

CREAM CHEESE:

• Cream cheese improves the dough’s texture and moisture content. It works well with mozzarella to form a malleable base. The moderate tang also helps to balance out the rolls’ sweetness.

EGGS:

• The egg functions as a binder, binding the dough ingredients together. It also gives a touch of lift to the rolls, making them softer. The egg contains additional protein.

BUTTER:

• Butter provides richness and a traditional flavor to the cinnamon filling. It melts into the rolls, leaving them moist when baked.

ERYTHRITOL GRANULES:

• This recipe’s sweetener is Erythritol, which replaces sugar. It gives sweetness without raising blood sugar. It also bakes well and gives the rolls a typical flavor.

CINNAMON:

• Cinnamon is the main ingredient that gives these buns their flavor. It gives warmth and sweetness without any additional carbohydrates. The scent also makes the rolls feel warm and luxurious.

VANILLA ESSENCE:

• The vanilla essence enhances the overall flavor of the dough. It naturally boosts sweetness, even when using a sugar replacement. A modest quantity goes a long way towards improving taste.

HEAVY CREAM:

• The use of heavy cream makes the rich and silky glaze. It readily combines with Erythritol powder to create a creamy topping. This increases indulgence while remaining keto-friendly.

ERYTHRITOL POWDER:

• The glaze contains Erythritol powder, which gives it a sugary feel. It dissolves easily and leaves a smooth finish. This makes the glaze light, sweet, and delicious.
