In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Stir well to mix all dry ingredients.
Beat the egg and add it to the dry ingredients along with water. Mix well to form a dough. Knead the dough until it becomes pliable.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and set aside while preparing the filling.
Peel and devein the prawns, then chop them finely and place in another mixing bowl.
Add cream cheese, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, green onions, and black pepper to the prawns. Mix until well combined.
Divide the dough into small balls, roughly the size of a walnut.
Roll each ball between two pieces of parchment paper to form thin wrappers.
Place a teaspoon of the prawn mixture into the center of each wrapper.
Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle, then press the edges gently to seal.
Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil and add a bit of salt.
Carefully drop the wontons into the boiling water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the prawns are cooked through and the wonton floats to the surface.
Remove with a slotted spoon and serve hot with a side of soy sauce or dipping sauce of your choice.
