Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and water. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil.
Once the mixture is boiling, remove from heat and immediately add the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a thick dough and pulls away from the sides of the pot.
Transfer the dough into a mixing bowl and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the cooled dough, mixing thoroughly after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy. You can use an electric mixer for this step.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Spoon the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip. Pipe small mounds (about 2 inches apart) onto the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the pearl sugar substitute over the top of each mound.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chouquettes are puffed up and golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Keto Chouquettes as a light snack or dessert!
