3g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice

5g Baking Powder

150g Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt

100g Egg Whites

 

Ingredients for Protein Icing for 6 Cinnamon Rolls:

20g PEScience Gourmet Vanilla Select Protein (“FDL” saves you 15%)

8g Coconut Flour

3g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice

60g Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt

30-40ml Cold Water

 

Directions

1.) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Add the dry ingredients to one bowl and the wet ingredients to another. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, in their separate bowls, to avoid clumping. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet and mix until the two are fully mixed together. 

2.) Take your biggest pan (mine was 12×18 in.) and flip it over. This is if you’re using a pan with raised edges like a brownie/cake pan. Cover the flat, bottom side with parchment paper, and spread the dough out to make 3 long lines. The lines should be about 3 inches wide and the full length of the pan. 

3.) Place the pan in the oven for 5 minutes, keep an eye on it, and take it out once the dough is no longer wet to the touch. While it’s cooling, mix all of the dry icing ingredients in a bowl. Add 10ml of cold water, mix, and repeat (about 3-4x) until you get an icing-like consistency. Mix in the greek yogurt until you get a thick, icing-like consistency. If it’s too thick, add in 10-20ml of cold water and mix some more.

4.) Flip each of the 3 long lines over, spread the icing on top, and roll each one up like a cinnamon roll. Slice the 3 rolls in half, turn each half face down, and add the pan back in the oven for 6 minutes. 

5.) Take the pan out of the oven and let the cinnamon rolls cool on a cooling rack, with the parchment paper still underneath. Add more icing on top, if you have any left over, and enjoy!
