Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • Make with a Greek-yogurt based dough, these No Knead Healthy Cinnamon Rolls are yeast-free, meaning they don’t have any rising time. Not only are they better for you than regular cinnamon rolls, but they’re a great way to get your cinnamon roll fix fast!
  • This is a small-batch cinnamon roll recipe so, perfect for smaller gatherings or a holiday breakfast for just a few of you.
  • These are cinnamon rolls that don’t compromise on flavor, slathered with a classic cream cheese frosting sweetened with powdered sweetener instead of sugar, so you don’t miss out on that finishing touch!

Chef’s Tips

  • This recipe makes 6 bakery-style rolls, but you can also use it to make 8 home-style rolls instead if you need to serve more people.
  • Using unflavored floss to cut the rolls will yield the best shaped rolls as the big roll of cinnamon roll won’t squash with the weight of a sharp knife.
  • We like Swerve as our go-to brand of sweetener in this recipe, but any brand you like and can easily buy should work in this recipe.

Equipment

  • 7×11-inch rectangular pan or 8×8-inch square
  • baking parchment
  • unflavored floss or a sharp knife for cutting the cinnamon rolls

Instructions 

  • Line a 7×11-inch rectangular pan with baking parchment and set aside.
  • Stir together all the ingredients for the dough. Once you have a smooth mixture, roll it out into a 12 inches × 8 inches rectangle.
  • Stir together the ingredients for the filling, and spread over the dough with a knife or spatula. Roll up the dough to form the cinnamon roll spiral.
  • Cut into 6 individual rolls using unflavored floss or a spark knife, and arrange in the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake at 350℉ for 35-40 mins until the rolls are puffed and golden.
  • For the frosting, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sweetener until smooth, thinning with milk a little if desired. Allow the rolls to cool slightly before spreading over the top.

Notes

Serve more people: This recipe makes 6 bakery-style rolls, but you can also use it to make 8 home-style rolls instead if you need to serve more people.
Shaping perfect cinnamon rolls: Using unflavored floss to cut the rolls will yield the best shaped rolls as the big roll of cinnamon roll won’t squash with the weight of a sharp knife.
