Instructions
    For the Cinnamon Rolls
  1. 1
    In a bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients except for the gelatin.
  2. 2

  3. 3
    Heat the bloomed gelatin and butter in the microwave until the butter is melted (usually 1-2 minutes).
  4. 4
    Add the gelatin-butter mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix together well; the dough may resemble more of a batter at this point.

    Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out thinly. Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes, then remove the top parchment paper.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle desired amounts of cinnamon and erythritol over the dough.
  7. 7
    Starting at one end, lift the bottom parchment paper and begin rolling the dough into a log.
  8. 8
    Once rolled, use a knife to cut the dough into 16 cinnamon rolls.
  9. 9
    Place the cinnamon rolls on a parchment-lined baking pan.
  10. 10
    Bake at 350℉ for 20 minutes.
    11. For the Orange Cream Cheese Frosting
  11. 11
    Place the softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl and begin whipping.
  12. 12
    Slowly pour the heavy whipping cream into the bowl while the mixer is still on. Be careful not to over-whip.
  13. 13
    Add in all other ingredients one at a time, then stir until everything is evenly mixed.
  14. 14
    Adjust the amount of orange and lemon oil/extract to achieve desired flavor intensity.
  15. 15
    Fold in orange zest for added citrus flavor.
