    How to Make Fluffy Paleo & Keto Cinnamon Rolls – Step by Step

     

    Preparing the Dough

     

    1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal and clean-up.

    2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sea salt, and sugar-free sweetener. Mix well to ensure even distribution.

    3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: almond milk, melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    4. Step 4: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. This dough should be pliable and slightly sticky.

      Rolling and Filling

       

    5. Step 5: Lightly flour a clean surface with almond flour and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

    6. Step 6: Sprinkle the ground cinnamon and additional sugar-free sweetener evenly over the rolled-out dough for that classic cinnamon swirl effect.

      Forming and Baking the Rolls

       

    7. Step 7: Carefully roll the dough from one long side to the other, creating a log shape. Be gentle to avoid tearing.

    8. Step 8: Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in the prepared baking dish.

    9. Step 9: Bake the cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.

    10. Step 10: Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving to ensure they hold their shape.
