Baking cinnamon rolls was one of my favorite things to do on lazy weekend mornings.  By the time they were in the oven, we would have them for lunch, as the process with a yeast dough is longer than these quick muffins.

This grain and gluten-free version comes together quickly enough that you can have them for breakfast, and they still have the fun part that the kids love – spooning the sweet cinnamon topping over the top.  They are delicious, and the almond flour and eggs make them filling and higher in protein than the wheat-based original.
