In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt. Add 2 eggs and melted coconut oil, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide dough into two and form them into discs. Wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan.
Add chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery to the skillet. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the mushrooms, tomato paste, beef broth, thyme, rosemary, remaining 1 teaspoon sea salt, and black pepper. Let simmer for 10 minutes until mixture thickens.
Remove dough discs from the refrigerator. Roll out one disc between two sheets of parchment paper to fit the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan.
Carefully transfer the rolled dough into the pie pan, pressing lightly to fit.
Pour beef mixture into the pastry-lined pie plate.
Roll out the second dough disc in the same manner and gently place over the filling. Trim edges and crimp to seal.
Brush the top with beaten egg wash for a golden crust.
Make a few small slits in the top of the pie to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
