5-Minute Healthy Mug Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
Dough
- 1/2 of a large banana
- 6 tbsp all purpose flour (paleo, gf, or regular all work!) +more if needed*
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1-4 tablespoons almond milk (roughly 1 tbsp if using regular flour, 4 tbsp for gf, none for paleo - brands can be different though so start with less and add as needed)
Filling
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Coconut oil for brushing
Caramel
- 1 heaping tablespoon coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon coconut milk cream (hardened thick white part on top of chilled or unshaken can)
- Pinch salt
Preparation
Mix dough ingredients together in a bowl until a thick dough forms
Because different brands of flour blends can be different start with a little almond milk (none for paleo flour) and only add as needed
If you add too much almond milk add a little more flour until a thick dough forms (not too much though or they will be too cakey)
Dough should be thick but may be a bit sticky
Roll out dough with hands on a floured surface (sprinkle flour on dough and hands to prevent sticking)
Do not roll it too thin
Brush with melted coconut oil
Pour cinnamon sugar mixture on top
Gently press cinnamon sugar mixture to avoid it spilling out
Roll up dough
Cut in 3 equal slices
In a large, tall mug stir together coconut sugar, coconut milk cream, and salt
Place sliced cinnamon rolls on top
Microwave for about 90 seconds (microwave times may vary slightly)
Let cool just slightly then enjoy
Tips
Feel free to double the caramel if you like lots of caramel
The mug used in the video was tall for visibility but caused spilling, so use a mug that can contain the mixture without overflow
*I mean all purpose blends I haven’t tested oat, almond, etc individually
