In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the cottage cheese and eggs until smooth. Stir in the finely chopped spinach, minced garlic, and chopped chives.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a slightly thick batter forms. Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb moisture.
Heat the olive oil and butter (or ghee) in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of the batter for each sochen into the skillet, flattening gently with the back of the spoon.
Cook the sochen for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the sochen from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Serve warm with your choice of low-carb chutney or yogurt.
