Equipment

  • Parchment paper
  • Baking sheet
  • Small bowl

Ingredients
  

For the "Roll-Up" Shells:

  • 6 slices Provolone cheese (or Mozzarella, thinly sliced)
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (or other keto-friendly granulated sweetener)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

For the Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (or other keto-friendly powdered sweetener)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cheese Shells

  • Lay out the cheese slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.

Bake the Cheese

  • Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes until bubbly and slightly golden, being careful not to overbake.

Cool and Crisp

  • Remove the cheese from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes; it will firm up and become crispy as it cools.

Make the Cinnamon Sweetener Mix

  • Combine 2 tablespoons of erythritol and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a small bowl, then set this mixture aside.

Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling

  • In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 2 tablespoons of powdered erythritol, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.

Assemble the Roll Ups

  • Once the cheese slices are cool and pliable, spread an even layer of the cream cheese filling over each slice, leaving a small border.

Roll Them Up

  • Carefully roll each filled cheese slice tightly into a log shape.

Coat with Cinnamon Sweetener

  • Roll each assembled roll-up in the reserved cinnamon-sweetener mix, ensuring an even and thorough coating.

Serve

  • Serve the roll-ups immediately, or refrigerate them for a firmer texture if desired.

Notes

For best results, allow the cheese to cool just enough to handle without breaking, as totally cold cheese may crack when rolled. You can also experiment with different keto-friendly sweeteners based on your preference.
