Low Carb Stuffed Cinnamon Roll

Ingredients

• 4 oz cream cheese ((softenend))
• 1/3 cup erythritol ((softenend))
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 tbsp butter ((softenend))

Instructions

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