Ingredients

Scale

Dough: 

  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 tbsp tapioca flour
  • 1/2 tsp. granulated monk fruit
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp pumpkin puree

“Cinnamon Sugar” 

  • 1.5 tbsp. granulated monk fruit
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon (or to taste)  

Other Ingredients: 

  • 2 tbsp. chopped pecans
  • 1 tbsp. coconut oil, melted.
  • 2 tbsp. coconut butter, optional for glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a tart ramekin (or other small, oven-safe ramekin) by lightly greasing with coconut oil. 
  2. Combine all of the “dough ingredients” into a small mixing bowl. Stir well until a thick dough forms. 
  3. Roll the dough out into a long rectangle between 2 sheets of parchment paper until it is about 1/2″ think.
  4. In another small dish, mix the monk fruit and cinnamon together for the “cinnamon sugar”. 
  5. Evenly coat the surface of the rectangle of dough with the melted coconut oil. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture and chopped pecans over the coconut oil.
  6. Use the parchment paper to carefully roll the sheet of dough inwards as tightly as possible.
  7. Cut the rolled dough into 3 even sections and carefully transfer each roll into the prepared ramekin.
  8. Bake for 25-28 minutes. Drizzle with melted coconut butter and serve warm!
