Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, granulated erythritol, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until fully incorporated.
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a thick batter forms.
Scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, dividing it into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a flat oval shape, ensuring they have some space apart for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the biscocho is golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let the biscocho cool on a wire rack. They'll firm up more as they cool, achieving the desired crunchy texture.
Once cooled completely, store them in an airtight container. Enjoy as a low-carb snack or with your favorite low-carb spread.
