Calories 230kcal
Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softenend)
- 1/3 cup erythritol (softenend)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 ounce cream cheese (softenend)
- 1/4 cup erythritol (softenend)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter (softenend)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon erythritol (softenend)
Instructions
- Prepare
- Preheat oven to 375
- Line large baking sheet with parchment, set aside.
- Filling
- In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, erythritol, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Fill small storage ziplock-type bag or pastry bag with mixture, snip the end and set aside.
- (this will make it easier to pipe evenly)
- Dough
- In large bowl, add mozzarella and almond flour.
- Break cream cheese into pieces and place in bowl.
- Microwave bowl for 1 minute.
- Remove from microwave and add vanilla, erythritol, and egg.
- Mix until fully combined.
- The egg makes the mixture wet, but if you keep stirring it will incorporate and make a solid dough ball.
- Press or roll dough to about 1/4 inch thick large rectangle on parchment.
- Pressing it out with my hands worked great.
- If you roll it, be sure to use a second piece of parchment on top of the dough to avoid sticking to rolling pin.
- Assembly
- Pipe a thick line of the filling slightly above the bottom edge of the dough rectangle.(Refer to photos in post)
- Gently roll the dough upwards around the filling until it is fully covered by the dough.
- Using a knife, gently cut a line below the roll to remove it.
- Pinch the roll edges closed, using a dab of water to seal if needed.
- Set roll aside and repeat 3-4 times or until all dough is used.
- Take 1 roll and create a spiral on the parchment.
- Connect other rolls around, pinching edges and sealing with water as you go to form a large spiral.
- In small bowl, mix melted butter, cinnamon and erythritol.
- Brush gently over spiral.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Edges will turn medium-golden brown and spread out.
- This is normal.
- Let cool for at least 30 minutes, it will firm up.
- Add glaze if desired.
- Refrigerate leftovers.
