Preheat the oven to 175Β°C (347Β°F).
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder.
Add the chilled butter and cream cheese to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the egg and mix until a dough forms. Divide the dough into three even pieces.
Roll each piece of dough between two sheets of parchment paper to a thin rectangle, approximately 5mm thick.
Transfer the dough along with the parchment paper onto baking sheets.
Bake each sheet of dough for 15-20 minutes or until golden and crisp. Allow them to cool completely.
To prepare the vanilla cream, place 2 tbsp of water in a small bowl and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow it to bloom for 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium-low heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from the heat and stir in gelatin mixture until completely dissolved.
Add powdered erythritol and vanilla extract to the cream, whisking until fully incorporated.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until it begins to thicken, about 20-30 minutes.
Once thickened, gently whip the cream mixture to create a smooth, creamy texture.
To assemble the Mille-Feuille, layer one sheet of the baked pastry, followed by half of the vanilla cream, another pastry sheet, the remaining cream, and finally the last pastry sheet.
Garnish with a sprinkle of additional erythritol powder or your choice of keto-friendly toppings.
Refrigerate the assembled Mille-Feuille for at least one hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and set.
