Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 8 rolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup erythritol
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, and baking powder. Whisk these dry ingredients until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, mix cream cheese, melted butter, and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. The consistency should be pliable but not too sticky.
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out into a rectangular shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Remove the top parchment paper and sprinkle the surface evenly with cinnamon and additional erythritol for extra sweetness.
- Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, using the bottom parchment paper to help guide the rolling process.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 8 equal-sized rolls.
- Transfer the rolls to the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each roll.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Optional: drizzle with a keto-friendly cream cheese glaze.
Tips
- Ingredient Temperature Matters: Ensure your cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature for smoother mixing and better dough consistency.
- Parchment Paper is Your Best Friend: Use parchment paper when rolling out the dough to prevent sticking and make the rolling process much easier.
- Don't Overwork the Dough: Mix just until combined to keep the rolls tender and prevent a tough texture.
- Check for Doneness: The rolls should be golden brown and firm to the touch. Ovens can vary, so start checking around the 20-minute mark.
- Let Them Cool: Allow the rolls to cool for 10 minutes before serving to help them set and make cutting easier.
- Storage Tip: Store leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave or oven before serving.
- Customize Your Glaze: Experiment with sugar-free cream cheese or almond milk-based glazes to add extra flavor and moisture to your rolls.
