Keto Cinnamon Twists (Snickerdoodles!)
Report
My keto cinnamon twists have a lovely crunch and make for a super satisfying sweet treat. Think of them as a sugar free snickerdoodle cookie, with a twist in the middle. Yum!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C / 390F electric or 180C / 350F fan.
- Place the shredded mozzarella in heat-proof bowl and heat in the microwave on high for one minute. Remove, stir with a spatula and heat for a further 30 seconds until melted. (Or warm in a non-stick pan on the stove).
- Add the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, erythritol and optional vanilla extract and mix to form a dough. Stir with a spatula and then knead with hands until fully combined.
- Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and then fold over the edges and re-roll into a rectangle.
- Mix the cinnamon and sweetener in a separate bowl. Brush the dough with ½ of the melted butter and sprinkle with ½ of the sweetener / cinnamon mix.
- Fold the dough in half so the snickerdoodle mix is in the middle. (You may need to rewarm the dough at this point for 20 - 30 seconds in the microwave on the greaseproof paper to help loosen it up to cut and twist.) Trim the edges to form a rectangle. Cut into strips about 3 - 3.5 cm wide and twist in the middle once.
- Place the twists on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush with the rest of the butter and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon / sweetener mix.
- Bake 11 - 15 minutes, or until slightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
