Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, grated Parmesan cheese, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to combine all dry ingredients.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white wine, and egg until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spoon or using your hands until a dough forms.
Knead the dough gently for 1-2 minutes to ensure everything is well incorporated. The dough should be pliable but not sticky.
Add the fennel seeds to the dough and knead briefly to evenly distribute them.
Take small pieces of dough (about 15 grams each) and roll them into thin ropes, approximately 10-12 cm long.
Shape each rope into a ring by joining the ends and pressing them together gently.
Place the shaped taralli onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each piece.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the taralli are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Turn off the oven and leave the taralli inside for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up.
Remove the taralli from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack. They will continue to harden as they cool.
Once fully cooled, store the taralli in an airtight container to maintain their crunch.
