Dough Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Additional erythritol for dusting (optional)
Cooking
- Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the skillet
- Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to remove any lumps ensuring a smooth dry mixture.
- Combine Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Mix Together: Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet cream cheese mixture, stirring continuously until a cohesive dough forms. If the dough is sticky, let it rest for a few minutes to firm up for easier handling.
- Roll Out the Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out gently to about 1/4-inch thickness, forming a rectangle shape for even rolling.
- Cinnamon Filling: In a small bowl, mix together ground cinnamon with additional erythritol. Evenly spread this cinnamon-sweetener mixture over the rolled-out dough.
- Roll the Dough: Starting from one edge, carefully lift the parchment paper to roll the dough into a tight log, making sure to peel away the parchment paper as you roll to prevent sticking.
- Slice the Roll: Using a sharp knife, cut the rolled dough into 1-inch thick pieces, creating individual roll-ups.
- Cook the Rolls: Heat a skillet over medium heat and grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter. Place the roll-ups cut side down in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Optionally, dust them with a mixture of cinnamon and erythritol before serving for extra sweetness and flavor.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
- Adjust the sweetness by modifying erythritol to your taste preference.
- Letting the dough rest helps reduce stickiness and makes rolling easier.
- Use a sharp knife to get clean slices for neat roll-ups.
- Cook on medium heat to ensure the inside cooks through without burning the outside.
- These roll-ups can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
