Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine water and butter. Heat over medium until butter is melted.
Add almond flour, coconut flour, and granulated erythritol to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture forms a dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well with a hand mixer or spatula after each addition, until the dough is smooth and glossy.
Spoon the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in about 12 equal mounds, spaced evenly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the puffs are golden and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
To make the filling, whip together heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powdered erythritol until stiff peaks form.
Use a piping bag with a small nozzle to fill the cooled puffs with whipped cream, inserting from the bottom or making a small incision on the side.
Melt the sugar-free dark chocolate with coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat or in a microwave at short intervals, stirring frequently.
Dip the tops of the filled cream puffs into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off, and place them back on the parchment paper to set.
Refrigerate the cream puffs for at least 15 minutes to set the chocolate before serving.
