Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart as it cooks. Cook until brown and fully cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the cooling meat mixture to a bowl and add grated Parmesan and ricotta cheese. Mix until combined. Set aside while you prepare the dough.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Continue to microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and well combined.
Fold the almond flour into the melted cheese mixture, then add the egg. Mix until a dough forms.
Between two sheets of parchment paper, roll out the dough to a thin sheet, about 1/8 inch thick.
Using a ravioli cutter or a knife, cut the dough into small squares, approximately 2x2 inches.
Place a small spoonful of the meat filling in the center of half the squares. Top each filled square with another dough square, pressing and sealing the edges with a fork.
Transfer the ravioli to a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is lightly golden.
While the ravioli are baking, heat the marinara sauce in a saucepan over medium-low heat until warm.
Serve the baked ravioli with warm marinara sauce drizzled over the top, and enjoy!
