Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Coconut flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 cups Butter (unsalted)
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Stevia or erythritol
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cups Fresh strawberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute and stir until well combined and smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
Add the melted cheese mixture, eggs, and 1 tablespoon of stevia or erythritol to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a dough forms.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Slice the dough into triangles. Roll each triangle from the wider end towards the point to form croissant shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the croissants with melted butter and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
While the croissants are baking, whip the heavy whipping cream with the remaining 1 tablespoon of stevia or erythritol and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Wash and slice the strawberries into thin pieces.
Allow the croissants to cool slightly before slicing them open.
Fill each croissant with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a few slices of fresh strawberries.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Croissants with Strawberries and Cream!
