Keto Cinnamon Roll Mug Cake is a low carb, sugar-free dessert with a cream cheese glaze. Cooks in the microwave in just 90 seconds. Such a quick and easy dessert.
It tastes just like a cinnamon roll in cake form. That makes it ok to eat for breakfast right?
These mug cakes get cooked in either 6-ounce tea cups of 4-ounce ramekins. You’ll start by greasing them with coconut oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. Whisk in the wet ingredients. Divide the batter between the tea cups or ramekins. Sprinkle cinnamon on top.
If you don’t want to cook them all right away, cover the ones you don’t want to cook with plastic wrap and refrigerate. They will keep for 3 days.
Microwave them one at a time for 90 seconds. Stir together the glaze ingredients, place in a ziptop bag, clip the corner, and drizzle the glaze on the cakes.
Best served warm.
Keto Cinnamon Roll Mug Cake Recipe Tips:
I use Swerve as a sweetener, but you could use monk fruit stevia blend or erythritol stevia blend.
Butter can be substituted for the coconut oil.
If you want to make this dessert dairy free, use coconut cream instead of cream cheese in the glaze.
These are the tea cups I use for my mug cakes. They are just the right size.
