Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups of almond flour, 2 tablespoons of coconut flour, 0.25 cup of erythritol, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
Melt 0.5 cup of butter and add it to the flour mixture along with 1 egg. Stir until a thick dough forms.
In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces of cream cheese using a hand mixer until smooth.
Add 2 tablespoons of powdered erythritol, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese. Mix until fully incorporated.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Scatter 0.5 cup of fresh raspberries over the cream cheese layer.
Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a border.
In a small bowl, beat 1 egg white and brush it over the edges of the dough.
Transfer the Danish to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the Danish to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
