Instructions

1

Prep the Rolls. Preheat oven to 325°F. Slice the entire sheet of rolls horizontally (like a giant sandwich bun), keeping them connected.

2

Make the Filling. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, Swerve, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in softened light butter and sugar-free maple syrup until a smooth paste forms. Spread evenly over the bottom half of the rolls. Place the top half back on.

3

Add the Zero-Cal Topping. Lightly mist the roll tops with non stick cooking spray so topping sticks. Mix sweetener and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly across the tops.

4

Time to bake. Wrap rolls loosely in foil. Bake for 8 minutes until warmed through and the filling is gooey. Leave covered for 1–2 minutes out of the oven to finish steaming.

5

Make the Frosting Add all frosting ingredients to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth, scraping sides if needed. Adjust with extra almond milk for a thick but spreadable consistency.

6

Frost & Serve. Frost rolls 2–3 minutes after baking while still warm. Spread generously so it melts slightly into the cracks. Then take out a roll and enjoy!
