Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, chopped chives, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and baking powder. Stir to combine.
Add the eggs, warm water, and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. Let the dough sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
Divide the dough into small balls (about 16 pieces), then flatten each into a thin round circle using your hands or a rolling pin, placing them between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling, pinching the edges together to seal, creating a half-moon shape.
Arrange the dumplings on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the dumplings in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the dough is firm and lightly golden, and the beef is cooked through.
Serve warm, optionally with a low-carb dipping sauce of choice.
