Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 60 grams of coconut flour, 90 grams of almond flour, 50 grams of erythritol, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Mix thoroughly.
In a separate bowl, beat the 2 large eggs and add 80 grams of melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 30 ml of water. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until the right consistency is achieved.
Fold in the 50 grams of sugar-free white chocolate chips into the dough.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a small dome shape.
Place each dome onto the prepared baking sheet and press down slightly.
Using a sharp knife, gently score the top of each dome in a crisscross pattern to create the classic melon pan look.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the cookies are set.
Allow the melon pan to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the low carb melon pan warm or at room temperature as a delightful snack or dessert.
