Ingredients

  • 175 g shredded mozzarella (see notes!) (1 1/2 cups)
  • 80 g almond flour  (3/4 cup)
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

For the filling:

  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 tbsp granulated sweetener
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

For the frosting:

  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • 1 tbsp greek/full fat yoghurt
  • 2 drops vanilla stevia

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 180 Celsius/360 Fahrenheit.
  • Melt the mozzarella and cream cheese in a non-stick pot over a low heat or in a microwave (1 1/2 minutes, stirring half way through). Take off the stove and/or make sure the cheese is melted, but not bubbling.
  • Stir in the egg.
  • Now add the almond flour and baking powder. Start to combine using a fork, then use your hands to make a ball of smooth dough. This can be easier if you lightly oil your hands first.
  • Divide the dough into 6 balls of ca 50g each.
  • Form long rolls (ca 40cm), then flatten out with your hands. Make the dough as thin as you can.
  • Prepare your cinnamon filling: boil water, then stir in the sweetener and cinnamon.
  • Spread the cinnamon paste over the flattened dough rolls.
  • Roll each into a bun and cut sideways in half.
  • Now you have 12 buns which you place on a non-stick baking sheet or in a pie dish.
  • Bake for ca 20 minutes.
  • While the rolls are in the oven, prepare the frosting: Mix cream cheese, yoghurt and stevia.
  • Spread over the warm rolls and serve
