Grain Free Cinnamon Rolls!!!!!!!!!!




I invented something over the past few weeks. I stayed up at night thinking about it, how to make them perfect, and now, I've done it. Grain free cinnamon rolls that will melt in your mouth. I am so pleased to present these to you!


Ingredients:

12 eggs
coconut sugar or honey
salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup mashed butternut squash (you can also use mashed pumpkin or banana)
3/4 cup milk, plus some extra for frosting
cinnamon
2 tablespoons of fresh squeezed orange juice
1/4 cup butter plus extra for greasing
chopped fruit and or nuts

Preheat you oven to 400 degrees. In a medium pot melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium low heat. Once melted remove from heat and set aside.Grease two baking sheets very well with butter.



Seperate the whites from the yolks for all dozen eggs. Beat the whites until stiff.

When the oven is preheated, fold the squash into the whites and add teaspoon or so of cinnamon and a teaspoon of cocnut sugar or honey along with a dash of salt.



Immediately spread the egg white and squash batter onto the baking sheets and put into the oven right away. Do not let these set. Bake for about 12 minutes until brown on the edges. Remove and allow to cool.



Add egg yolks to your melted butter along with your milk, cinnamon to taste, coconut sugar or honey to taste, vanilla, and orange juice. Cook over medium heat stirring all the time until mixture thickens (this takes about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and continue stirring for about 2 minutes. Add some extra milk until the mixture is the consistency of runny pudding.



Spread the runny pudding mix over the egg white and squash (leave some for topping). Top with additional cinnamon, chopped or dried fruit, nuts, etc. (Pictured here I have used chopped apples and almond slivers)



Cut into strips and roll up. At this point they will be quite cool so I recommend popping them back into the oven for a few minutes as well as heating up the runny pudding and adding additional milk.

Once warm, top with pudding mixture and enjoy! :)
