These Keto 1 Minute Cinnamon Rolls make a great snack when you're craving something sweet but don't have a lot of time (ahem, or patience) to prepare something.

Let's be honest, cinnamon rolls are delicious but they aren't the easiest dessert to prepare, let alone trying to make a keto version. 

I love my original Keto Cinnamon Rolls recipe but sometimes you want a dessert that's just enough for one serving, to kick a craving without spending your whole day in the kitchen.

This is that dessert. I still can't get over how great the texture and flavour of this keto cinnamon roll recipe is. These almost remind me of the McDonald's Cinnabon Delights. 

Long-story short, if you're a cinnabon or cinnamon roll fan but hate the process of making them, this recipe is for you.

Ingredients In Keto 1 Minute Cinnamon Rolls

• Keto Bread and Pastry Flour – This is a keto flour alternative to white flour that I developed and is now available for purchase on my website. It acts and tastes much more like white flour than almond or coconut flour and gives baked goods a lightness and more “rise” than other low carb flours. It can be used in all kinds of pastries and breads including; croissants, cinnamon rolls, pizza crust, flatbreads, dinner rolls, bagels, muffins, cakes, pies etc.
• Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener – My favourite sweetener to bake with. It has the closest flavour to regular white sugar in my opinion. The powdered blends great into any dessert.
• Baking Powder – This is replacing what normally would be the yeast in traditional cinnamon rolls. It causes our little mini cinnamon rolls to rise and puff-up in the microwave.
• Cinnamon – You can't have cinnamon rolls without cinnamon. We use this in both the filling and in the dough itself.
• Salt – Salt brings out the flavour of the rest of the ingredients!
• Almond Milk – You can really use any milk in this recipe. This is just an easy one! Light cream, light coconut milk, cashew milk, oat milk, etc all work too.
• Butter – I used salted butter for mine but unsalted works just fine as well! Adding this to the dough softens it and gives us that soft, pillowy cinnamon roll texture we all know and love.
• Sukrin Gold Sweetener – This is my favourite brown sugar replacement. It's got a great texture and flavour. 1 tbsp goes a long way in this recipe!
• Arrowroot Starch – This is optional, it's used to thicken the filling so it doesn't spill out everywhere in the microwave. But if you aren't going for perfect presentation, it's completely optional. Cornstarch will also work here.

Tools I Used To Make Keto 1 Minute Cinnamon Rolls

• Low Carb Substitution Guide – This is totally optional but if you like my recipes, I now have a $5 guide available with all of the substitutions I use to create every recipe on my site. You can use this to convert old traditional recipes and create new keto recipes! You can purchase it here and/or read more if you are interested. 🙂 I appreciate your support so much guys!
• Nutritional Food Scale – AKA my best friend. This little buddy has been with me for over 4 years and never fails. Perfect measurements and only needs the batteries replaced maybe once a year!
• Small Glass Bowls
• Fork
• Spoon
• Parchment Paper
• Microwave
• Dough Cutter

Tips For Making Keto 1 Minute Cinnamon Rolls

• Add a little more almond milk to the dough if absolutely needed but careful not to over-do it or your dough will spread too much in the microwave.
• When kneading the dough, you can do it on a flat surface to make it easier. Try not to over-knead your dough to wear it becomes too elastic or it may be hard to roll out. 
• If you don't have sukrin gold, you can use swerve brown in place of it or 1 tbsp regular sweetener plus a few drops of molasses.
• Every microwave is different. Mine microwaves quite quickly so 55s may not be enough time for everyone. Adjust as needed.

How To Store Keto 1 Minute Cinnamon Rolls

• These cinnamon rolls are best served warm.
• If you'd like to eat them later, either prepare the cinnamon rolls and refrigerate until you plan to microwave them OR re-heat already prepared rolls in the microwave for 15-20s.
