These are THE BEST KETO FATHEAD LOW CARB PIZZA ROLLS you will have taste! The texture is pretty amazing considering they are grain free, gluten free, nut free and low carb!
Fathead Rolls
Comfort food has always been something related to bread, don't you think? A crusty Italian loaf smothered in butter, croutons for a salad, rolls with dinner, french toast, bread pudding and on and on and on. The staple of an American diet has been bread.
But once you decide to be on a low carb diet, standard bread is out of the question which could make anyone feel the loss of that once beloved food. No worries though, I've created a ton of low carb bread recipes to make you feel like you're not missing out on anything!
Keto Cinnamon Rolls
When I shared my Keto Cinnamon Rolls, they went viral immediately! The texture is pretty outstanding and I can't use the typical almond flour like most low carb bloggers because my youngest son has a tree nut allergy. So coconut flour and sesame flour are the choice of low carb alternatives I've been working with and perfecting. Today's recipe is an adaption on a savory take to my cinnamon rolls. And they are just as good as they look. They will completely fulfill that bread craving and that pizza craving!
Honestly whether you're on a low carb diet plan or not, these are the pizza rolls you'll want to make again and again. Super easy, no yeast involved, no fancy ingredients, just simple and that's how I roll. Pun intended!
Fill them with whatever you like on or in your pizza! Other additions would be olives, onions, sausage, etc. My family devoured these the first time I made them. You can also top them with more Marinara Sauce if you like a bit more sauce.
Brenda's Notes:
- So when I made these for the video I used coconut flour, but then I ran out of my beloved coconut flour. I only had about a ¼ cup the second time I made these for the photos. I decided to see how sesame flour would work as a replacement. And they were just as perfect! So use either sesame flour or coconut flour as my orginial recipe calls for and you will end up with the most delicious roll you've ever had!
Enjoy!

Hello,
I was wonder how much almond flour would I have substituted for coconut flour
Brenda
About 1/4 cup coconut flour equals about a cup of almond.
Felicia
Could you freeze these and bake them later? Or would you recommend baking then freezing?
Brenda
Best to bake them then cool and freeze.

I don't typically write reviews for recipes but this was INCREDIBLY tasty so I have too. Truly delicious and filling and was a huge hit with the whole family. After taking one bite my husband said "this is a keeper" 🙂 I used sautéed onions and mushrooms and ground turkey for toppings and even though we just finished dinner I can't wait to eat this again.
Thank you for a great recipe!!
Brenda
Thank you so much!

I am in a very rural area and don’t have access to Xanthus gum. Can I substitute something? Sure looks wonderful.
Brenda
You can leave it out.

Great concept but unfortunately this recipe wasn’t great for us. You can really taste the coconut and it takes allot longer to cook, even with an extra 15min the inside was still unpleasant to eat.
I highly recommend a normal fathead dough if you can have almond flour. That is always more like dough and you don’t even notice your not eating normal bread.
I made this twice and both time weren’t enjoyable 🙁
Kim
So, I made these tonight and yes, I forgot the eggs and I used almond flour as I dint have coconut flour on hand. I actually added a little extra moth & part cheese on top of the rolls. I cooked them for 25 minutes and I thought along with my husband that they turned out DELICIOUS! I would maybe add some more seasoning but otherwise I wouldn’t change any of the things I did.
Kim
I meant Mozzarella and Parm cheese on top, darn typo’s.
Brenda
Wow and no eggs, did I read that right? Amazing!
Stephanie
I tried this recently and they were tasty and we were pleased with the dough. But having them together in the cake pan, the middles didn’t cook all the way through even with extra cook time. Anyone else have this issue?
Rachel
Anything that I could substitute the cream cheese for? I can handle a little bit of cheese, but the cream cheese will put me over the top....
Angela
A few people asked this same question but I didn't see any reply. I made the recipe exactly as written but I had a difficult time rolling up the dough. It was breaking apart. What can be done to prevent this from happening? Thanks in advance 🙂
Brenda
I've created a new method that works much better for working with this dough. I haven't edited all my fat head dough recipes but the method is in this recipe to follow:https://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/low-carb-strawberry-cream-cheese-cinnamon-rolls/

These were amazing!! Thank you for sharing - can’t wait to try your other recipes.
Sarah
Easy to make and so so good, even my partner loved it without being on keto!
Theresa Jackson
Is there only 2 eggs to 3/4 cup of coconut flour? Does coconut flour need more moisture? I followed the recipe and dough was just so dry and hard to roll out. .
KAS
How do I print the "fully printable recipe"? I tap the "print" window on my cell phone screen but nothing prints from my printer. I'm technology challenged. HELP!!!!
Brenda
That is something to do with your phone and internet at home connecting to your printer.
Shae
Just wondering where you find sugar free pepperoni. Thanks for the recipe!
Laura
Is there something I can use in place of the eggs? I am allergic
Debby
Eggbeaters in a carton in the dairy case
Anne Dalin
This recipe looks amazing. I'm thinking of using a muffin tin, so all the sides will come out browned. What do you think? Thanks.
Brenda
Sure that will work.
Jamie
Can you make a regular pizza with this dough recipe?
Brenda
Not it would be too soft and wouldn't hold up. use my recipe here:https://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/grain-free-nut-free-low-carb-pizza/
Tracy
Saw these on your Instagram account and had to try them. The only thing I did different was use less cocounut flour and add extra seasoning. Think I used 1/2 cup vs 3/4 because I know coconut flour is super absorbent. They were fantastic and rolled out great. I can’t wait to try the cinnamon rolls! Thank you for sharing ?
Dayyi Hernandez
Thank you for sharing your journey and recipes with us! I am great ful.

Hi---I tried these tonight for supper and they were really good! One thing for sure...they are super-filling! I could only eat 1 1/2 roll before I had to pack it in. Next time I will add in additional veggies before I roll them up. As reported by others, the dough is a bit dry but when I wet my hands with water to aid rolling, it helped immensely. Next time I just might add a bit more sauce.
And since I had an open pack of Boursin herb and garlic cream cheese in the fridge, I subbed that in for the plain cream cheese and it was delicious!!
Thanks for the recipe!
Kelly A Parker
That is a fabulous idea -- flavored cream cheese! I'm going to try that next time I make the Fat Head pizza, I think! Thanks for sharing!
