Ingredients

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Almond Flour
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Flour
  • 1 cup Erythritol
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • Additional Sweetener (optional, for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well blended to create a smooth dough texture.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, egg, and vanilla extract until creamy and free of lumps.
  3. Step 3: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the cream cheese mixture. Mix until a cohesive dough forms. If the dough feels sticky, let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out gently to about 1/4-inch thickness, shaping it into a rectangle.
  5. Step 5: In a small bowl, mix ground cinnamon with additional sweetener if desired. Spread this evenly over the rolled-out dough.
  6. Step 6: Using the parchment paper for support, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Slice the log into 1-inch pieces to form individual roll-ups.
  7. Step 7: Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the roll-ups cut-side down for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Step 8: Let the roll-ups cool slightly before serving. Dust with a mixture of cinnamon and erythritol for extra flavor and presentation.

Tips & Variations

  • Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.
  • Try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon mixture for a richer spice blend.
  • If coconut flour is not available, use all almond flour but reduce erythritol slightly to balance sweetness.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is well softened to avoid lumps in the dough.
  • For a sweeter topping, dust roll-ups with powdered erythritol just before serving.

Storage

Store leftover roll-ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave to regain crispiness. For longer storage, freeze roll-ups in a sealed bag for up to one month; thaw before reheating.

How to Serve

The image shows several cinnamon roll-like pastries arranged closely together on a white plate, each pastry having a spiral shape with visible layers. The outer layer is golden brown and coated with a grainy cinnamon sugar mixture, giving it a textured look. The inner layer is filled with smooth, creamy white icing that swirls through the middle and slightly oozes out at the edges. The white plate contrasts with the warm tones of the pastries, and the background has a white marbled texture, adding a clean and bright setting to the scene. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Notes

  • Use pure vanilla extract for best flavor.
  • If the dough is too sticky, resting it allows flours to absorb moisture for easier handling.
  • Coconut flour is highly absorbent; adjust quantity if using it alone.
  • Optional dusting with powdered erythritol enhances sweetness and appearance.
  • Adding nutmeg to the cinnamon mixture adds extra depth of flavor.
