Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 stick Butter
- 1 cup Water
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Sugar-free vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free sweetener
- 1 cup Sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the water and butter. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
Add the almond flour and coconut flour to the saucepan, stirring quickly until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes. Crack in the eggs, one at a time, beating vigorously after each addition until the batter is smooth and glossy.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip. Pipe small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the puffs are golden brown. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
While the puffs are cooling, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with the sugar-free vanilla extract and sugar-free sweetener until stiff peaks form.
Once the puffs have cooled, use a sharp knife to slice them in half horizontally and fill each with the whipped cream mixture.
For the chocolate coating, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
Dip the tops of the filled cream puffs in the melted chocolate, and allow the chocolate to set before serving.
