Equipment

  • Stand Mixer with Whisk + Paddle Attachments

Ingredients
  

For the Dough

  • 1 ½ cups tapioca flour
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

For the Filling

  • 6 tablespoon butter softened
  • cup coconut sugar
  • 2-3 teaspoon cinnamon

For the Glaze

  • 2 cups powdered monkfruit sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoon almond milk

Instructions
 

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat eggs, coconut sugar and vanilla together until the mixture is smooth.
  • Remove the whisk attachment + fit the mixer with the paddle attachment.
  • Add apple cider vinegar, salt, baking soda, baking powder and mix on low. Begin to add in tapioca flour and almond flour ½ cup at a time, continuing to mix on low until dough begins to form.
  • Once mixture becomes doughy, remove the bowl from the stand mixer and knead with your hands, forming a dough ball. Wrap the dough ball in plastic wrap, flatten dough into a rectangle, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, remove dough from the fridge. Place on a large piece of parchment paper and roll out into a rectangle, about 9x7.
  • Next, make the filling. In a small microwave safe bowl, soften butter until fully softened and slightly melted. Add coconut sugar and cinnamon to the bowl and mix using a fork to fully incorporate. Mixture should be soft and spreadable.
  • Using a silicone spatula or icing spatula, spread the filling evenly along the dough, right up to the edges.
  • Using both hands, roll dough into itself using the parchment paper as your guide. Continue to roll dough into a log. Cut into 10 equal sized rolls.
  • In a pre-greased 8x8 baking dish, arrange cinnamon rolls. They will not spread too much while baking, so it is okay if they touch.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until dough is golden.
  • While the cinnamon rolls bake, mix up the icing. In a small mixing bowl, combine powdered monkfruit sugar, vanilla and almond milk, whisking to combine until mixture is smooth.
