Cinnamon Roll Cookies Directions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the light butter, zero-calorie sweetener, and brown sugar substitute until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
- Brush the melted butter over the dough, then sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar substitute and cinnamon.
- Carefully roll the dough into a log, starting from one of the long sides.
- Slice the log into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sweetener and almond milk to create a glaze.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies before serving.
