Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup granulated erythritol
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup sugar-free raspberry or strawberry jam
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
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, erythritol, sea salt, and xanthan gum. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs and melted butter. Add the cream cheese, almond milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, continuously stirring to form a cohesive dough. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles from the rolled dough.
Place a small spoonful of sugar-free jam in the center of each dough circle.
Carefully fold each circle over into a half-moon shape and press the edges together using a fork to seal the pastry.
Place the pastries onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges of the pastries are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for later.
