Sticky Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

I am SO happy to share this recipe with everyone, this is just a ''let's bake cinnamon rolls'' recipe, very spontaneously, and I didn't have ANY recipe to go after. And they turned out great on the first try? How? I have no idea. 
Gosh what I have missed cinnamon rolls, that's like the best thing that exist. Now I can eat them without feeling guilty, raise my blood sugar or hurt my body! They are gluten free, refined sugar free, vegan, yeast free and they are super simple and fast to make. If that wasn't enough they also are pretty low in calories, 68 calories each (if you get 9 rolls). Dream treat. 
They maybe look hard on the outside but when you take a bite they are all goey and doughy. I have so much ideas for these so stay tuned... 
So anyways, if you like doughy cinnamon rolls this is defiantly a recipe for you, don't fear the pumpkin! #pumpkineverything 



Sticky Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls:
(Makes 9  rolls     |     Gluten free, refined sugar free, vegan, yeast free )



Ingredients dough:
130g pumpkin puree
25g oat flour
2 tbsp coconut flour
2 tbsp almond flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp stevia
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cardamom
1/2 tsp pure vanilla powder
a very small pinch of salt
1 tbsp (10g) coconut oil

Ingredients filling:
3 fresh dates (50g)
1/2 tbsp almond flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
10g (a smal hand) pecans



Method: Put oven on 175 celsius and prepare a baking tray with a non-stick baking sheet. 
Melt the coconut oil and pour in a bowl with all the other ingredients for the dough, stir with a spoon.
When the dough has become harder start to form it a little with your hands. 
Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and form a rectangle. Use your flat of the hand and make it thinner, about 1 inch or less thick. 
Next step is to make the filling. 

Filling: Pitt your dates and prepare a mixer, while the mixer is on drop each date until they become sticky (You may need to take them up with a spoon and drop them over and over sometimes, depends on what mixer you use, and remember, watch your hands).
When they are sticky enough put the ''date paste'' in a little bowl and stir in almond flour and cinnamon, mix together with a fork. Smear the date paste all out to the corners over the cinnamon dough, chop your pecan and sprinkle over. 
Then it's time to roll. Roll the tallest side and take help from the baking sheet (picture below). When done, cut dough into 9 pieces and put them so the date paste is uppermost. Put into oven for about 10 minutes then they are ready to eat! 

Tip: Drizzle some agave/maple syrup or walden farms calorie free syrup over the buns. 
You can make a healthy and fast protein glaze of 1 tbsp vanilla protein powder, 1 tbsp quark/greek yogurt, some stevia and 1 tsp water.
