Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute, stirring halfway through, until melted and smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine 1.5 cups of almond flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1 egg. Mix well.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the almond flour mixture. Knead the dough until it's well combined and smooth. It will be slightly sticky.
Roll the dough into a ball, then place it on the prepared baking sheet. Shape it into an oval or boat shape by flattening the center and raising the edges to form a well in the middle.
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of feta cheese, 1 cup of ricotta cheese, and 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley. Season with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Fill the cheese well with the cheese mixture, spreading it evenly.
Make two small wells spaced apart in the cheese filling. Crack an egg into each well (using the remaining two eggs).
Bake the Khachapuri in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the eggs are set but the yolks are still slightly runny.
Remove from the oven and brush 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the edges of the crust. Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
