Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Stevia or erythritol-based sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
Add the beaten egg, sweetener, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to firm up.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Cut the dough into desired shapes using a pastry cutter or a knife.
Place the cutouts onto the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle sliced almonds on top, pressing gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your keto almond pastries!
