Instructions
Cinnamon Rolls
- Preheat oven to 350°F and melt butter down that you are using for dough (4 TB)
- Mix dry ingredients almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, xanthan gum, salt, ground cinnamon, baking powder
- Mix wet ingredients melted butter, egg, vanilla extract and monk fruit extract
- Combine dry and wet by folding with a spatula such as video. Dough will get really thick. Too thick for a hand mixer.
- Oil 2 sheets of parchment paper and lay dough down on top of the oiled side.
- Lay other half with oil side down on top of dough the being rolling into a rectangle shape. A tip I would cut off pieces to form a rectangle shape then just rolled them back down into the dough.
- Don't roll dough too thin. If dough is sticking to the paper you have rolled too thin
- Spread softened butter leaving about an half an inch at the end. Then sprinke cinnamon and sugar across after you have mixed those 2 together.
- Being your roll, slowly
- Cut into pieces and make sure the end piece isn't hanging. A little pressure will cause the dough to stick to itself easily. Spread out on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes in preheated oven. The tops will brown slightly but be mindful of the bottoms.
Cream Cheese Frosting
- Make sure cream cheese is room temp
- Mix cream cheese and sour cream first
- Then add the rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth

Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- When rolling the dough be extra careful not to roll super thin. I showed in the video and photo above that the rolled dough shouldn't be any thinner than that. This will create a very hard time from it releasing from parchment paper.
- Make sure to oil both sides of the parchment paper. You don't need any oil or water on your hands but oil your paper.
- For filling, putting butter in the microwave for 5-10 seconds removing before melting. Or leaving butter out for an hour before starting the recipe.
