Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Make the dough
- Add the blended oats, protein powder, almond butter, date syrup (or honey/maple syrup), salt, vanilla, and almond milk to a bowl.
- Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, add a little more almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time until it holds together but isn’t sticky.
Step 2: Prepare the cinnamon date filling
- Add the pitted Medjool dates, almond butter, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and 1–2 tablespoons almond or oat milk to a blender or food processor.
- Blend until a thick, smooth paste forms. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Step 3: Roll out the dough
- Place a sheet of parchment paper on your work surface.
- Transfer the dough onto the parchment and use your hands or a rolling pin to press it into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
Step 4: Add the filling
- Spread the cinnamon date filling evenly across the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 5: Roll the dough
- Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a tight log, creating a long swirled “cinnamon roll” shape.
Step 6: Chill
- Wrap the log in the parchment paper and place it in the refrigerator or freezer for about 2 hours until firm. This helps the rolls slice cleanly.
Step 7: Slice and serve
- Once chilled, remove the log and slice into roll bites about ½–1 inch thick.
