Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 cup Spinach (fresh or frozen, chopped)
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese together in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Combine the dry ingredients with the melted cheese mixture and knead into a dough. Add one egg and continue kneading until a smooth and uniform dough forms.
Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper into a large rectangle, approximately 12x8 inches.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped spinach with melted butter until wilted (if using fresh spinach) or heated through (if using frozen spinach). Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Mix the sautéed spinach with the crumbled feta cheese to create the filling.
Cut the rolled-out dough into 8 triangles. Place a small spoonful of the spinach-feta mixture at the wide end of each triangle.
Carefully roll each triangle from the wide end to the tip to form a croissant shape, and place them on the lined baking sheet.
Brush each croissant with the prepared egg wash to help them brown beautifully.
Bake the croissants in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly puffed.
Allow the croissants to cool for a few minutes before serving.
