Ingredients
Scale
- 2 3/4 cups Almond flour
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup grass-fed butter or vegan butter, or coconut oil
- 2/3 cup Coconut sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 cup melted grass-fed butter or vegan butter
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp almond flour
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup monk fruit powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk of choice, as needed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make Cinnamon Roll Filling: In a small bowl, mix together all the cinnamon roll filling ingredients. Place this in the fridge so it doesn’t get melty while you make the cookie dough.
- Make the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the coconut oil and coconut sugar for 2-3 minutes, until super smooth and no lumps remain. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until fully incorporated, add the almond flour, baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix just until a cohesive dough forms.
- Bake the cookies for 12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheet. Then move to a wire rack to let them cool further.
- Once completely cool, top with cream cheese frosting or glaze.
- Combine the softened cream cheese, powdered monk fruit sugar, and vanilla and whisk well until combined. Add milk of choice, 1 tbsp at a time, until it reaches a thick glaze. You can taste the glaze & add more powdered sugar if needed. Frost the cooled cookies and enjoy!
Notes
- Store in an air-tight container for up to 5 days. You can warm them up for a few seconds if you’d like or leave them out at room-temp for a bit before enjoying.
- Freeze baked, un-frosted cookies for up to 2 months. Thaw, warm, then frost before serving.
