Cracking the Cinnamon Roll Code

One of my most recent quests was to develop a recipe for low-carb keto-friendly cinnamon rolls (5-7  net carbs apiece or under). They must be  delicious (close in texture and taste to the rolls my Gramma made). Sounds impossible right?

These miracle rolls need to be simple (easy to find ingredients with easy procedure); and need to be overall healthful! The code got cracked this week. I had 4 test batches turn out well, meeting all criteria. My grandmother made Swedish-style cinnamon rolls often. Afterall, it was part of her heritage to be an amazing baker. She was born and raised in Sweden, immigrating to Midwestern America as a young woman. (Her cinnamon roll recipe has been tweeked and modified to become keto-friendly as posted below).

My Gramma raised her large family on a homestead in South Dakota. My mom, therefore, was raised in a traditional Swedish-American culture. It was full of fresh milk, cream and butter, with lots of freshly baked cinnamon rolls and homegrown everything. My Mom brought much of her traditional baking into her own family. Therefore, my siblings and I were born into a heritage of freshly baked bread and cinnamon rolls for special occasions. However, I began to learn eating white flour and high carb food was causing health and weight problems. GMO’d white bread and highly processed sugar were suspect.
Eventually, it meant cutting the carbs by eliminating bread and sugar altogether for me. When turning to ketogenic eating; bread and anything with sugar had to go.

Good news! I’ve  been on a ketogenic / intermittent lifestyle for 5 years. It’s been an amazing answer for losing 30 lbs and staying healthy. My Volume  III of my 7-Volume  Freedom -Transformation Series is called “Fast Forward into Freedom”. This book  is my testimony of losing 30 -40 lbs and becoming healed in 5 areas. I’ve been able to maintain these in the  past 5 years.

This Volume is a how-to manual of becoming transformed( healed and whole) in our bodies. It helps  complete the  tri-dimensional process of becoming  WHOLE as stated in: 1 Thessalonians 5:23…

“And the God of peace Himself sanctify you wholly, and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Why Cinnamon rolls you may ask?
The answer is  I’m republishing this Volume III book with tested recipes for my most favorite traditional foods. This is one of them to be passed on as a family tradition.
