🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (packed)
✓ 2 tbsp cream cheese
✓ 1/4 cup almond flour
✓ 1 large egg
✓ 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
✓ 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
✓ Pinch of sea salt
✓ 2 tbsp butter (softened)
✓ 2 tbsp allulose
✓ 2 tsp ground cinnamon
✓ Glaze: 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (0% plain), 1 tbsp monk fruit, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep the Dough Base: Combine mozzarella and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and combined (about 90 seconds total). Let cool for 2 minutes until safe to handle.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, xanthan gum, and sea salt. Set aside.

3. Create Dough: Add egg and vanilla extract to the cooled mozzarella mixture. Stir vigorously until smooth. Fold in the dry ingredient mixture until a cohesive dough forms. It will be slightly sticky but manageable.

4. Shape the Base: Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, flatten into a thin rectangle (approximately 8×6 inches). The thinner you roll, the more spirals you'll achieve.

5. Apply Filling: Remove top parchment. Spread softened butter evenly across the dough. In a small bowl, mix allulose and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture uniformly over the buttered surface.

6. Roll and Cut: Using the bottom parchment as an aid, tightly roll the rectangle from the long side into a log. Using a sharp knife, slice into two equal rolls. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, cut-side up.

7. Bake to Golden: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20–22 minutes until the edges are light golden-brown and the centers are set. They will not brown as heavily as flour-based rolls.

8. Prepare the Glaze: While rolls bake, whisk together heavy cream, Greek yogurt, monk fruit, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable. The glaze should have the consistency of thin icing.

9. Finish and Serve: Remove rolls from oven and let cool for 3 minutes. Drizzle or spread glaze generously over warm rolls. Serve immediately while still warm for maximum cheese pull and moisture.
