Ingredients List

• Flour tortillas (2 large or 4 small) – whole wheat, gluten-free or low-carb versions also work
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter – or coconut oil for a dairy-free version
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar – or swap with coconut sugar, date sugar, or maple crystals for a more natural, lower-glycemic sweetener with rich flavor
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon – freshly ground for best flavor
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract – optional, but enhances flavor
• 2 oz cream cheese – softened
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar – for the glaze
• 1 tbsp milk (dairy or plant-based like almond, oat, or soy)

  Step-by-Step Instructions

  Step 1: Make the Cinnamon Filling

  Melt the butter in a small bowl. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon, and mix into a thick paste. Add vanilla if using. Set aside.

  Step 2: Fill and Roll

  Lay each tortilla flat. Spread the cinnamon mixture generously and evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla, making sure to reach every edge and corner so that each roll is layered with sweet, spiced flavor. Roll tightly like a burrito and slice into 1.5-inch pieces.

  Step 3: Cook in Skillet

  Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place rolls spiral-side down. Gently press with a spatula. Sear each side for about 2 to 3 minutes until it turns nicely golden and lightly crispy on the outside. Inside, the cinnamon sugar melts into a luscious swirl that oozes slightly from the edges, infusing each roll with an inviting aroma and an irresistibly rich, toasty flavor that makes every bite stand out.

  Step 4: Make the Glaze

  Whisk together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until the glaze is completely smooth and silky, with a consistency that’s thick enough to cling yet fluid enough to drizzle effortlessly. Add more milk to thin if needed.

  Step 5: Glaze and Serve

  Drizzle the warm rolls with glaze. Serve immediately while gooey and hot.
