With the spice of ginger and richness of cream cheese, these keto gingerbread roll-ups are an easy party appetizer or snack.
Gingerbread Roll-Ups
Can you believe that each gingerbread roll-up only has 1 gram net carbs? It’s surprising, but it’s true! These keto-friendly tortillas are filled with gingerbread-flavored cream cheese and the result is incredible!
What are the flavors that make you think of gingerbread? Vanilla, cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground cloves. Together, they will make you think of the classic holiday dessert.
If you’re craving gingerbread but don’t want all that sugar and carbs, make these! They are topped with the best glaze, making them the healthiest way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Pan Fried Roll-Ups
There are a lot of different ways to cook roll-ups. You can make them in the air fryer, bake them, or fry them in a pan. I used a frying pan because it’s just so simple!
You could eat them raw, but I love how they taste when the brown sugar substitute caramelizes – it really makes the gingerbread flavors stand out.
Quick tip: Use tongs to turn the roll-ups. It’s easier to grab them with tongs than trying to flip them over with a spatula.
Be gentle. If you squeeze too hard, you might cause the filling to leak out.
Best Keto Tortillas
To make sure you keep the carb count low, only use small street taco-sized tortillas. There are really large tortillas that will have more carbs in them.
If you want to cut back on carbs even more, you could cut the tortillas in half and make them bite-sized!
What is the best brand of keto-friendly tortillas? I prefer Mission Zero-carb tortillas. They taste just like flour tortillas!
Keto Roll-Ups
There are so many ways to make roll-ups! These gingerbread roll-ups are similar to another dessert recipe I love – keto crispy cinnamon cream cheese roll ups.
They have the same cream cheese filling, but are coated with cinnamon sugar instead of using glaze. I also love both Low-carb cream cheese peach roll-ups and crispy keto blueberry cream cheese roll-ups when I’m craving something sweet.
You can make savory roll-ups, too. I’ve made taco roll ups, club sandwich roll ups, and Philly cheesesteak roll ups.
How To Store Roll-Ups
Store leftover keto gingerbread roll-ups in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to three days.
Can you freeze them? Yes, you can! Wrap each chilled and baked roll-up in plastic wrap or foil.
Then place them in a freezer-safe food storage bag. They will stay fresh in the freezer for up to six months.
