- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or heavy cream)
- 1 tablespoon erythritol or your preferred low-carb sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling:
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1/4 cup erythritol or your preferred low-carb sweetener
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Glaze:
- 3 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or heavy cream)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
2. Make the dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the eggs, melted butter, almond milk, erythritol, and vanilla extract. Stir well until a dough forms.
- Use your hands to knead the dough for a minute or two, until it becomes smooth and slightly sticky.
3. Roll out the dough:
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle (about 1/4 inch thick).
4. Make the filling:
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, erythritol, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.
5. Assemble the cinnamon rolls:
- Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the dough into a log, starting from one end.
- Slice the dough into 8 rolls and place them into the prepared baking dish.
6. Bake the cinnamon rolls:
- Bake the cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
7. Make the glaze:
- While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the glaze by combining softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, almond milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
8. Glaze and serve:
- Once the cinnamon rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and serve.

Special Tip: 💡
For the best texture and flavor, allow your Keto Lemon Cheesecake to chill overnight—this helps the flavors fully develop and ensures a firm, creamy consistency. Want an extra burst of lemony goodness? Add an extra teaspoon of lemon zest to the filling and sprinkle a little on top before serving! 🍋✨ Also, for a smooth, crack-free cheesecake, bake it in a water bath or place a pan of hot water in the oven to keep the air moist.
