Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Butter, cold and cubed
- 0.25 cup Cream cheese, chilled
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.33 cup Low-carb sweetener (granulated)
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Pulse to blend the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the cold, cubed butter and chilled cream cheese into the processor and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and low-carb sweetener until combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the food processor and pulse until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface, using almond or coconut flour to prevent sticking, and knead gently to bring it fully together.
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
Evenly sprinkle the sugar-free chocolate chips over the surface of the dough.
Carefully fold the dough over the chocolate chips in thirds, like folding a letter. Roll out again to a 1/4-inch thickness.
Fold again in thirds to create layers, which gives the dough a flaky texture.
Use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to cut the dough into 8 individual pastries.
Place the pastries onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your keto chocolate puff pastries as a delightful low-carb treat!
