Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup erythritol
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and xanthan gum, mixing until well blended.
In a separate bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into two equal parts. Shape each portion into a rectangular disc, wrap them in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
On a piece of parchment paper, roll out one portion of the dough into a thin rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Mix the erythritol and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
Sprinkle half of the erythritol-cinnamon mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough.
Roll the short sides of the rectangle towards the center, meeting in the middle. Repeat the rolling with the other side until they touch in the middle.
Repeat steps 7 to 10 for the second portion of the dough.
Cut the rolled dough into 1/2 inch slices and place onto the prepared baking sheet, cut side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Allow the palmier to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your keto-friendly palmiers as a delicious snack or dessert!
