Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
Filling
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sweetener, and salt thoroughly to distribute all ingredients evenly.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and unsweetened almond milk until smooth and well combined.
- Form the Dough: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a cohesive dough forms that can be handled and rolled out.
- Roll Dough: Place the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangular shape, roughly about 8 by 12 inches, for easy rolling.
- Prepare Filling: Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter and mix it with the cinnamon and 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener to create a spiced, sweet filling. Spread the filling evenly over the rolled-out dough.
- Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough tightly from one long edge to the other, making sure the filling stays inside. Slice the rolled dough into 8 even cinnamon rolls.
- Bake: Place the sliced rolls onto the lined baking sheet, ensuring a little space between each. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown on top.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving to let them set and become easier to handle.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the almond flour is fresh to avoid a bitter taste.
- You can substitute Swerve sweetener with erythritol or another keto-approved sweetener if preferred.
- If the dough feels too sticky, chill it for 10-15 minutes before rolling.
- Serve warm for the best texture and flavor; leftovers can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
- Optional: Add a sugar-free glaze made from cream cheese and sweetener for an extra treat.
