Keto Cinnamon Rolls

One-bowl Keto Cinnamon Rolls made with coconut flour fathead dough. This easy recipe is completely nut-free and is also gluten-free. 

I’ve been trying to make coconut flour cinnamon rolls forever! Coconut flour alone isn’t enough to create a moldable dough that can be used like other flours. Instead, I turned to using coconut flour fat head dough.

I love fathead dough and I used it to create these Keto Cinnamon Rolls. I use my coconut flour fathead dough recipe except, for this recipe I increased the amount of coconut flour to help the cinnamon rolls hold their shape better. 

Fathead dough is so much fun to use. It feels like a real dough and you can fold it and roll it just like regular dough. 

This recipe for keto cinnamon rolls uses only mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, coconut flour, eggs, and some sweetener. The cinnamon rolls end up being on the small side because the dough doesn’t rise.

I included a simple cream cheese frosting recipe that is quick to whip together. You can use your favorite cream cheese frosting recipe instead or a glaze. 

How To Make Keto Cinnamon Rolls

To make the cinnamon rolls you simply melt the cheese and cream cheese together. 

Mix the flour mixture together. Then combine the two into a dough.

Roll the dough into a rectangle and add the filling. Then roll it into a cyclinder and cut into pieces. 

Bake until golden brown and spread with the frosting.
