FAQs

1. What about if I want to prepare some of them in advance?

3. What can I use in place of erythritol?

• If you don’t have erythritol then you can replace it with other keto friendly sweetener like stevia or monk fruit. Oh just be careful with the conversion rates, some of the sugar replacements are less sweet than the regular white granules.

• Use room temperature ingredients: This also makes it easier for the dough to be put together, and form a mass. In this process, it is also not easy to mix if the eggs are cold or if the flour has not been warmed up.

• Don’t overbake: It is also important to note that one should always observe the rolls especially while they are being baked. It is advisable to overcook since cinnamon rolls should be bake until gold brown, lest they dry out.

• Add a glaze: When you want to make it a bit more special, you should think about making a keto-friendly glaze using powdered erythritol and a little cream or almond milk.
