I've been testing a ton of recipes using fiber gourmet flour, so I decided to make some low calorie cinnamon rolls! These came out super amazing, and the dough turned out even fluffier than I expected! These could also be made even lower in calories if you use fake sugar in the filling and icing – not the dough since the yeast needs sugar to activate – I just don't really like the taste of fake sugar. Another way to make them even lower is to make less of the icing; The first photo shows only half of the icing, and the third photo shows what it looks like with the full ammount.

This recipe makes 8 rolls, with 165 cal per piece. (Theres only seven in the pan I used since I dropped one on the ground </3)

Ingredients –

Dough:
1/4th cup unsweetened almond milk
1 and 1/4th tsp instant yeast
24g granulated sugar
1 egg
1 and 1/2 tsp oil
165g fiber gourmet flour

Filling:
84g granulated sugar
1 tsp molasses
50g unsweetened apple sauce
2 tbsp Cinnamon

Icing:
2 oz 1/3rd less fat cream cheese
48g sugar
1 tsp Vanilla extract
A few tsp unsweetened almond milk

Extras:
1/4th cup 2 percent milk
1/2 tsp oil

  1. Heat almond milk up until it is bath water temperature, then add in yeast.
  2. Add sugar into yeast mixture and mix.
  3. Add in other dough ingredients and mix.
  4. Knead dough while adding water so it doesn't dry out until it passes window pane test. (10ish minutes)
  5. Put dough ball into bowl with 1/2 tsp oil rubbed onto surface and let rise for 50 minutes in warm place. (I kept it under my heatable blanket, which helped it rise even higher than normal)
  6. Make filling while dough sits in warm place.
  7. Roll out dough and add filling on top.
  8. Roll into a log and cut into 8 portions using dental floss or string.
  9. Put rolls into pan and allow to rise for another 50 minutes.
  10. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  11. Pour 1/4th cup 2% milk over rolls before baking.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  13. While rolls bake, mix together Icing and add a few tsp of almond milk until it reaches desired consistency.
  14. Pour icing on top of rolls once they come out of the oven and enjoy!

    Wow, OP, those look fantastic! If I were you the entire tray would be gone in a day (and you’d still stay under 1200, jeez!)

    I have fiber gourmet flour I’ve also been messing with. Made a great pumpkin roll, these are next. Thank you!

    I need to make these. I’m always so afraid to experiment with my fiber gourmet flour because it’s so expensive and my sweetener of choice (allulose) doesn’t bake well! But I think because the majority of the sweetness is in the icing/cinnamon filling for these and allulose is perfect for sweetening liquid/saucy/creamy foods, this might be exactly what I’m looking for
