Instructions

1. Make dough:

In a food processor, pulse almond flour, coconut flour, monk fruit, xanthan gum, and salt.
Add cold butter; pulse until crumbly.
Add egg; pulse until dough forms a ball. Wrap in plastic; chill 10 minutes.

2. Make filling:

Beat cream cheese, powdered sweetener, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until smooth.

3. Roll & fill:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
Roll dough between two sheets of parchment into an 8×10″ rectangle (~⅛” thick).
Spread filling evenly over dough, leaving a ½” border.

Roll tightly from long side into a log. Slice into 8 pieces.

4. Bake:

Place roll-ups seam-side down on baking sheet.
Brush with egg wash; roll in cinnamon-sugar mix.

Bake 18–22 minutes until deep golden and crisp. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

→ Fully baked roll-ups keep 3 days refrigerated (re-crisp in 350°F oven 5 min)
