Keto Cinnamon Rolls

Keto Cinnamon Rolls

"These low-carb rolls are wonderful for dessert and breakfast. At only 1.3g net carbs per cinnamon roll, you can go ahead and have two. This recipe uses almond flour and mozzarella cheese, which results in gooey and decadent rolls. The Ceylon cinnamon added to the filling has a delicate aroma and slightly sweet taste that regular cinnamon can't provide. The cream cheese topping makes these cinnamon rolls protein-rich, and, thus, quite filling. Regular cinnamon that you can find at your local grocery store is Cassia (or Saigon) cinnamon. You will find Ceylon cinnamon only at health food stores, and it tends to be more expensive than Cassia cinnamon. "
