Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup gluten-free flour blend
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 1/4 cup blueberries
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, gluten-free flour blend, and baking powder. Whisk together until well incorporated and free of lumps.
- Add maple syrup and almond milk to the dry ingredients. Mix gently until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add a little more almond milk; if too wet, sprinkle a bit more gluten-free flour.
- On a clean surface dusted with gluten-free flour, roll out the dough into a rectangular shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Sprinkle cinnamon evenly across the surface of the rolled-out dough. Distribute fresh blueberries across the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, using a bench scraper or spatula to help lift and roll if needed. Gently pinch the seam to seal.
- Cut the log into a single cinnamon roll, about 1-
- 5 inches thick.
- Place the roll in a small, greased ramekin or single-serve baking dish. Ensure the roll is centered and has room to expand.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes. Optional: drizzle with additional maple syrup or a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and almond milk.
- Serve warm and enjoy your single-serve blueberry cinnamon roll directly from the baking dish.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure your ingredients are at room temperature for the best dough consistency.
- Flour Dusting: Use extra gluten-free flour when rolling to prevent sticking.
- Blueberry Placement: Distribute blueberries evenly to ensure every bite is bursting with fruity goodness.
- Don't Overbake: Watch your roll closely - golden edges mean it's perfectly done.
- Customization is Key: Feel free to experiment with different berries or add a sprinkle of nuts for extra texture.
- Serving Suggestion: A light drizzle of maple syrup or a quick almond milk glaze can elevate this roll from great to extraordinary.
