Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon erythritol or preferred sweetener
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
- Mix Cream Cheese Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, almond flour, erythritol, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well integrated.
- Melt Mozzarella Cheese: Place the shredded mozzarella cheese in a separate bowl and microwave for about 30 seconds until it becomes melted and gooey.
- Combine Mixtures: Add the melted mozzarella cheese to the cream cheese mixture. Mix well to ensure a uniform texture throughout.
- Form Roll Ups: Scoop portions of the combined mixture and shape them into thin, flat rectangles directly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Apply Egg Wash: Brush the beaten egg over the surface of each rectangle to give a glossy, golden finish during baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the roll ups turn golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the roll ups from the oven and allow them to cool slightly for a better texture before enjoying.
Notes
- Adjust erythritol quantity to increase or decrease sweetness according to preference.
- Ensure mozzarella cheese is fully melted for a smooth mix and better binding.
- Cooling the roll ups after baking helps achieve crispier texture and enhanced flavor.
