These Paleo Cinnamon Roll Blondies have all the flavors of a cinnamon roll, but made so much easier! A gluten free, dairy free, naturally sweetened treat.

I am still on a quest to make every possible cinnamon roll inspired dessert and these blondies came out incredible. A thick cookie with a sweet cinnamon layer in the middle. Of course it had to be topped with a glaze- making these just like classic cinnamon rolls.

Paleo Blondies

These blondies are based off my sugar cookie bar recipe, just with the ingredients increased so they would be thicker. Almond flour and coconut flour are the base with coconut sugar and maple syrup used for the sweetener. They are simple and so delicious!

Cinnamon Swirl Center

That cinnamon swirl is good enough to eat by itself and truly tastes like the center of a cinnamon roll. The almond butter isn't really detectable thanks to all the cinnamon. And the maple syrup adds just the right amount of sweetness. It makes for a gooey, irresistible center.

Paleo Glaze

They wouldn’t be true cinnamon roll cookies without a glaze!Coconut butteris the base which is always my go-to. It’s creamy and drizzles perfectly. A little maple syrup is added for sweetness and then water to thin it out. This really adds nice sweetness and of course it’s pretty.

Then all the layers come together for the most perfect combination. For when you're craving a cinnamon roll, but want something easier. The texture of these couldn't be more perfect. Dense, moist, and a little doughy with the gooyines of the cinnamon layer.
