Keto Caramel Sticky Buns

Keto Caramel Sticky Buns

Keto Caramel Sticky Buns recipe provided by Tara Wright, Whole Body Living These low carb sticky buns use almond flour for the keto flour. The caramel sauce is made possible by my favorite sugar substitute, BochaSweet as well as just a hint of molasses for that brown sugar flavor we associate with caramel! I recommend that you do not use cupcake liners or any liner in this recipe because it would make inverting the finished rolls difficult. Grease your muffin tins with coconut oil and they will slide right out and not leave a big clean-up job behind! These should freeze very well. I didn't get a chance to freeze any of these because they were quickly consumed by my family!

  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Rolls
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping tream
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • ½ cup BochaSweet
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/4 cup blanched superfine almond flour (140 grams)
  • 1 cup walnuts chopped
DIRECTIONS: Make the caramel sauce:
  1. Prepare a 12 cup muffin tin (or two 6 cup tins) by greasing each muffin cup. Set aside.
  2. In a medium (3 quart) stainless steel saucepan, melt the butter until it begins to bubble.
  3. Add BochaSweet and molasses and stir until simmering.
  4. Whisk in cream and xanthan gum until xanthan gum is thoroughly blended. Whisk vigorously.
  5. Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla extract.
  6. Ladle in a portion of the mixture into each greased muffin tin--splitting the caramel sauce evenly between the 12 tins.
  7. Optionally-- add walnuts or pecans to the caramel sauce.
  8. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (325 degrees convection).
Make the batter for the cinnamon rolls:
  1. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine eggs, avocado oil, heavy whipping cream and whisk together.
  2. Add salt, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla and BochaSweet and whisk until combined.
  3. Finally, whisk in the almond flour. Whisk until the batter isn’t lumpy.
  4. Using a scoop or small measuring cup, scoop the batter into the muffin tins on top of the caramel sauce--divide the batter equally between the 12 tins.
  5. Place filled muffin tin in preheated oven (350 degrees/325 degrees if convection) for 14 minutes or until muffins are set up in the middle.
  6. Once done, remove from oven and immediately invert onto a cookie sheet. See the video for a demonstration. The caramel sauce will be on top and you’ll have delicious caramel sticky buns!
