Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (180Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and erythritol.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy.
Melt the butter and cream cheese together in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth.
Add the melted butter mixture to the eggs, whisking continuously.
Add the vanilla extract and almond milk to the wet mixture.
Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
Sprinkle a clean surface with a bit of almond flour and roll the dough out into a rectangular shape about 1/4 inch thick.
Spread the sugar-free raisins evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the raisins.
Carefully roll up the dough from one long side to the other, forming a log.
Slice the log into 8 equal pieces and place each one on the prepared baking sheet, cut side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the Pain aux Raisins to cool slightly before serving.
