Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and heavy cream until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly to form a dough.
Sprinkle a little almond flour on a clean surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 0.5 cm thick.
Cut the dough into eight evenly-sized rectangles.
Place a small handful of cheddar cheese (about 18-20 grams) on half of each rectangle.
Fold over the other half of each dough rectangle to cover the cheese and press the edges to seal, using a little water to help stick if necessary.
Transfer the sealed kaasbroodjes to the prepared baking sheet.
Beat the egg yolk and water together in a small bowl to make an egg wash.
Brush the top of each kaasbroodje with the egg wash.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your low carb Dutch Kaasbroodje warm!
