In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well.
Add the egg and water to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough gently on a flat surface until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes.
For the filling, in another bowl, combine ground pork, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Flatten each piece into a small circle of about 3 inches in diameter.
Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture in the center of each dough circle.
Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal tightly.
Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place the dumplings in the skillet and cook until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
Carefully flip the dumplings and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes until all sides are crisp.
Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
