Protein Cinnamon Roll

Recipes

You know the smell. You walk into the food court of a mall and it invades your senses. Your heart rate climbs. Your mouth waters. Your stomach churns.

Cinnamon rolls.

So good. So incredibly bad for you. Never fear. We’ve got the high protein, low carb version for you and they taste amazing!

 

You will need:

  • 5 Egg Whites
  • 10g Coconut flour
  • 30g Vanilla whey
  • 10g Apple Fiber
  • 1 Packet Truvia
  • 1/2 tbsp Cinnamon

Spray a rectangle pan with non stick spray (coconut oil works great here)

Combine the above ingredients and then lay it out on the pan in one long rectangle.

Bake for 15 minutes or until done at 350 degrees.

Frosting:

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup Fage Non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Packets Truvia
  • 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract

Whip the egg whites together, then fold into the Fage. Combine and whip the remaining ingredients.

Once the roll is done, roll it up and cover in the frosting (you’ll probably have extra). Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top.
