Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, granulated erythritol, baking powder, and sea salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Then add the vanilla extract, almond milk, and egg, whisking until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and pecans until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using your hands, shape the dough into a rectangular block and place it onto a sheet of parchment paper.
Roll the dough out to approximately 1/2-inch thickness using a rolling pin, keeping the rectangular shape.
Cut the dough into 12 equal bars or squares using a knife or dough cutter.
Transfer the cut pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Low Carb Nutty Pastry Delight at room temperature, or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
