Ingredients
Roll-Ups
- 6 small Low-Carb Tortillas (street taco size)
- 5 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup Swerve Confectioner’s Sugar Substitute
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Topping
- 1/4 cup Swerve Granulated Sugar Substitute
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend together the softened cream cheese, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 cup of Swerve confectioners sugar substitute until smooth and well combined.
- Fill the Tortillas: Lay each low-carb tortilla flat, then spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla.
- Roll the Tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla closed around the cream cheese filling, ensuring it is tightly sealed to prevent filling from spilling out during cooking.
- Heat the Butter: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the 4 tablespoons of butter until fully melted and slightly sizzling.
- Cook the Roll-Ups: Place the filled tortillas seam side down in the melted butter. Cook and turn to brown all sides evenly, about 2-3 minutes per side, until the tortillas are crispy and golden brown.
- Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/4 cup granulated Swerve sugar substitute with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
- Coat and Serve: Remove the crispy roll-ups from the skillet and immediately sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the butter-coated exterior. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use street taco size low-carb tortillas for best results; larger tortillas may cause overfilling or uneven cooking.
- Ensure cream cheese is softened for easy blending and spreading.
- Cook over medium heat to avoid burning the butter and to achieve a crispy exterior.
- Serve immediately for optimal crispiness; they tend to soften if left to sit.
- This recipe is customizable by adding low-carb sweeteners or spices for different flavor profiles.
