A quick and delicious grain-free treat

Happy November! This is a lovely weekend recipe that I enjoy making first thing in the morning to have with my coffee. It feels luxurious but doesn’t contain any grains or refined sugar (which doesn’t upset my stomach to have before eating anything more substantial, we love to see it.) I know some folks like to do full-fat grass fed dairy on the paleo diet which makes some recipes a bit more flexible, but you can just as easily use coconut cream and coconut oil in place of grass fed butter and heavy cream here, depending on your needs.

Ingredients:

For the Dough

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tbsp raw honey

  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour

  • 1 tbsp coconut flour

  • 1 tsp pure baking soda

  • Pinch of sea salt

For the filling

  • 1 tbsp organic cinnamon

  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar

For the Glaze

  • 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream or full fat coconut cream

  • 1 tbsp grass fed butter, melteed or coconut oil, melted

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • Pinch of cinnamon

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°

  2. Whisk together the coconut oil, egg, honey, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to combine.

  3. Make your filling by mixing the cinnamon with the sugar.

  4. Transfer the dough onto a sheet of wax paper. Cover with another sheet of wax paper and roll out into a long rectangle. Remove the top sheet and drizzle the dough with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

  5. Use the wax paper to roll the dough into a log and place in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up.

  6. Slice the log of dough into individual pieces, about 5-10 rolls, making sure they’re roughly the same size. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 9-12 minutes, or until golden.

  7. Meanwhile, make the glaze by stirring together the honey, heavy cream/coconut cream, butter/coconut oil and cinnamon. Once the rolls are golden, remove from the oven and drizzle with glaze. Serve warm.
