In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Mix well.
Add the eggs to the flours mixture and blend until a crumbly dough forms.
Gradually add warm water to the dough, mixing until a smooth and pliable consistency is achieved. Allow the dough to rest for about 5 minutes.
Prepare the filling by mixing together the mozzarella cheese, shredded pork, and refried black beans in a separate bowl.
Divide the rested dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it slightly with your hands.
Take one dough ball and make a small well in the center using your fingers. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling into the well.
Carefully bring the edges of the dough together to encase the filling, pinching the seams to seal. Gently flatten the filled dough to form a disk about 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining dough balls and filling.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Cook the pupusas in batches, about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve hot and enjoy with your favorite low-carb salsa or slaw.
