Step-by-Step Instructions for Keto Cinnamon Cream Cheese Roll Ups

  1. Prepare the cream cheese filling

    Soften about 4 oz of full-fat cream cheese to room temperature. Mix it with 1 tsp cinnamon and 1–2 tbsp powdered erythritol or your keto-friendly sweetener until smooth.
  2. Lay out your low-carb wrap

    Use a keto-friendly low-carb tortilla or make a quick almond flour wrap. Place it flat on a clean surface.
  3. Spread the filling evenly

    Using a spatula, spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire wrap, leaving a small border at the edges to prevent overflow.
  4. Roll tightly and slice

    Starting from one edge, roll the wrap tightly but gently to avoid cracking. Slice into 1-inch pinwheels.
  5. Prepare the crispy coating

    Mix ½ cup crushed pork rinds with 1 tsp cinnamon and a pinch of sweetener. This mixture will give the roll ups a crispy, golden outer layer.
  6. Coat each roll up

    Lightly brush the sliced roll ups with melted butter or coconut oil. Roll each piece in the pork rind mixture until fully coated.
  7. Cook for crispiness

    Place the coated roll ups on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. For extra crunch, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end but watch carefully.
  8. Cool and serve

    Let cool a few minutes to set the crispy crust. Serve warm or room temperature.
