Keto Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting (Low Carb Recipe!)

What Sweetener Do You Use for a Keto Cinnamon Rolls Recipe?

We use granulated erythritol and Swerve’s brown sugar (from Amazon) in our keto cinnamon rolls recipe. This gives them a sweet taste without adding in extra sugar and carbs.

We also use 1/2 cup of powdered erythritol for the cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients Needed:

• 2 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese
• 2 ounces cream cheese
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups almond flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 tablespoons granulated erythritol

How to Make Keto Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Over a double boiler, melt mozzarella cheese and cream cheese together.

When melted, stir together and beat in 2 eggs.

Stir in vanilla and granulated erythritol.

Using wet hands, push the dough into a rectangle.

Spread the softened butter and brown sugar Swerve in the center.

Sprinkle with cinnamon.

Cut into 8 pieces, then place in buttered baking dish.

Bake for 18-20 minutes.

How to Make the Cream Cheese Frosting

Beat softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol until fluffy.

Add heavy cream as needed to keep frosting soft and fluffy.

Remove cinnamon rolls from oven, and drizzle frosting while hot.

Can I Use Coconut Flour to Make This Keto Cinnamon Rolls Recipe?

We don’t recommend substituting coconut flour for this recipe because it absorbs liquid differently than almond flour. If you feel like your roll is too moist, you can try adding a tablespoon of coconut flour to dry it out a little bit, but we didn’t need to do this. 

We realize coconut flour would be an even lower-carb option, but we wanted to create something that really tasted and had a the texture of a copycat Cinnabon recipe which is why we used almond flour.
