Let’s Get to Cooking

For the Rolls

Step 1 – Grab a large bowl and add all your dry ingredients (flours, sugars, and baking powder), and mix thoroughly.

Step 2 – In a separate bowl, add your eggs and vanilla, and whisk thoroughly.

Step 3 – Grab a microwave-friendly bowl and add your cream cheese and mozzarella. Toss it in the microwave to melt for 90 seconds. Stop at 30-second intervals to mix the melted cheese mixture.

Step 4 – Combine the melted cheese mixture with your eggs and vanilla mixture. Then add it to your dry mixture and knead until fully combined.

Step 5 – Place a piece of parchment paper on a surface and place the kneaded dough on top. Grab another piece of parchment on top and roll the dough until you get a 16×10″ rectangle. Brush the surface of the dough with a mixture of 2 tbsp melted butter, some cinnamon, and some brown sugar. Roll it into a log and chill for 10 minutes.

Step 6 – Preheat your oven to 375°. Grab an 8×8″ metal baking pan covered with parchment paper and greased with butter.

Step 7 – Once chilled, cut the log into 12 equal pieces. Place on your metal pan, brush with remaining butter mixture and bake for 30 minutes until golden brown.

For the Glaze

Step 1 – Grab a heat-resistant bowl, add your melted cream cheese.

Step 2 – Add your heavy cream and sugar and whisk until you get a smooth consistency.

Step 3 – After baked cinnamon rolls have rested slightly, drizzle your glaze on top before serving.

Final Note

Because of a lack of wheat flour, keto desserts can be difficult to pull off. Though almond flour is amazing on its own, it can’t develop the gluten that wheat flour does. But, with this amazing keto cinnamon rolls recipe, you won’t even spot a difference between the real thing and this!
