Ingredients
Scale
Dough Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling Ingredients
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp erythritol or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener (adjust according to sweetness preference)
For Cooking
- Cooking oil spray (for frying)
Instructions
- Preparation: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, softened cream cheese, and beaten egg. Mix thoroughly until a smooth dough forms without lumps.
- Rolling the Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out evenly into a thin rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
- Prepare the Filling: In a separate bowl, mix together the cinnamon and erythritol sweetener to create the flavorful filling.
- Add Filling: Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon and sweetener mixture over the rolled-out dough.
- Forming the Rolls: Carefully lift one edge of the parchment paper and roll the dough tightly into a log shape, using the parchment to help guide the roll.
- Slicing: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into 1-inch thick pieces.
- Cooking: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and spray lightly with cooking oil. Cook each roll-up for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Serving: Serve the roll-ups warm, either plain or with your preferred keto-friendly toppings.
Notes
- Adjust sweetness by changing the amount of erythritol according to your taste preference.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing and rolling easier.
- Use a sharp knife for clean slices to prevent the rolls from squishing.
- Cooking in a non-stick pan with oil spray helps achieve a crispy texture while keeping it low in fat.
- You can store any leftovers in the fridge and reheat gently in a pan or microwave.
