INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Almond Flour (48g)
1 scoop Whey Protein Isolate (30g)
1 Egg White (33g)
1/4 tsp Baking Soda (1.25g)
Pinch of Salt (0.5g)
3 tbsp Water (45g)
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon (2.6g)
1 tbsp Erythritol for filling (12g)
2 tbsp Unsweetened Applesauce (30g)
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt for glaze (30g)
1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract (1.3g)
1 tsp Erythritol for glaze (4g)
PREPARATION
In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, whey protein isolate, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
Add the egg white and water gradually, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface (use a bit of almond flour), roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Mix the ground cinnamon, erythritol, and unsweetened applesauce in a small bowl to form the filling.
Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
Starting from the long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log, then slice into 4 equal pieces.
Place the roll slices into a lightly greased baking dish.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are set and slightly golden.
While baking, prepare the glaze by mixing nonfat Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and the additional teaspoon of erythritol until smooth.
Once baked, remove from the oven and drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls.
Enjoy your protein-packed almond flour cinnamon rolls as a wholesome treat!
