Prepare the Dough<\/h3>\n<p>In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stir well, then microwave another 30 seconds until smooth and melted.<\/p>\n<p>Add the almond flour, baking powder, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix quickly until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels sticky, allow it to cool slightly before handling.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Roll Out the Dough<\/h3>\n<p>Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll into a rectangle about 9&#215;12 inches.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Make the Filling<\/h3>\n<p>Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough.<\/p>\n<p>In a small bowl, mix the sweetener and cinnamon together, then sprinkle over the buttered dough.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Roll and Slice<\/h3>\n<p>Carefully roll the dough into a tight log from the long side.<\/p>\n<p>Slice into 8\u201310 rolls using a sharp knife or unflavored dental floss for cleaner cuts.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Bake<\/h3>\n<p>Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish.<\/p>\n<p>Bake at 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C) for 20\u201325 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Prepare the Glaze<\/h3>\n<p>While the rolls bake, beat together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract.<\/p>\n<p>Add heavy cream gradually until the glaze reaches your desired consistency.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Finish and Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool for about 5 minutes, then spread the glaze generously over the warm rolls.<\/p>\n<p>Serve warm and enjoy.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Let the cheese mixture cool slightly before adding the egg to prevent scrambling.<\/li>\n<li>Use dental floss instead of a knife for perfectly shaped rolls.<\/li>\n<li>Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.<\/li>\n<li>Reheat in the microwave for 10\u201315 seconds before serving for a fresh-baked texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Low-Carb Cinnamon Rolls Soft, gooey, and topped with a rich cream cheese glaze, these low-carb cinnamon rolls are perfect for&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5041,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5040","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5040","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5040"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5040\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5042,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5040\/revisions\/5042"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5040"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5040"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5040"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
