Cinnamon rolls were something that I have missed lately. I love cinnamon so much, I can drink coffee with cinnamon, eat apple pie with cinnamon, I could add cinnamon to all desserts and drinks. Following a healthy diet and lately a more keto oriented diet, I decided to find a healthier version of my favourite cinnamon rolls. Healthy, keto, low carb and sugar free cinnamon rolls!
