Why You’ll Love These Protein Cinnamon Buns

Traditional cinnamon buns are often loaded with sugar and refined flour, leaving your body high on carbs and low on protein. Our recipe flips that script. With low-fat Greek yogurt, almond milk, and Swerve sweeteners, you get the cozy, cinnamon-y flavor you love, without the sugar spike. Plus, 50 grams of PEScience Multi-Purpose Select Protein in the dough makes these buns a true muscle-friendly treat.
