Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups of mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese.
Microwave the cheese mixture on high for about 1-2 minutes, until melted and stretchy. Stir well to combine.
Add 2 cups of almond flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt to the melted cheese mixture.
Add 1 large egg and mix everything together until a dough forms. You may need to knead it with your hands.
Divide the dough into 2 equal parts. Shape each portion into an oval shape, about 10 inches long, leaving a thicker border to form a boat shape.
Place the dough boats onto the prepared baking sheet.
In another bowl, mix 1 cup of crumbled feta cheese with 1 large egg until well combined.
Fill the center of each dough boat with the feta cheese mixture, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, until the edges are golden and crispy.
Remove the khachapuri from the oven. Make a slight well in the center of the cheese filling of each boat.
Crack a whole egg into each well and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set.
Remove from the oven and place 2 tablespoons of butter on each khachapuri.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
