Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Beat the egg and add it along with vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Mix until a dough forms. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
While the dough chills, prepare the filling. Peel the zucchinis, slice them into thin strips, and place them in a bowl. Add lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, allulose, and xanthan gum, then toss to coat evenly.
On a lightly floured surface (using almond flour), roll out the dough into a rough 12-inch circle. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
Arrange the zucchini filling in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edge. Fold the edges over the fruit, overlapping slightly, to create a rustic free-form tart.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is tender. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Keto Rustic Apple Galette warm or at room temperature.
