Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 2 whole large eggs
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 cup, grated carrot
- 1 cup, grated zucchini
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten egg wash
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Add melted coconut oil and eggs, stirring until a dough forms. Knead briefly to bring the dough together, then wrap in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat, if any.
Add diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cook until the onion is translucent.
Stir in grated carrot, zucchini, tomato paste, thyme, oregano, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the vegetables are soft. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Cut the dough into rectangles (approximately 4x6 inches).
Place a generous spoonful of the meat mixture onto one half of each dough piece, ensuring you leave space at the edges.
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to form a pocket. Seal the edges by pressing down with a fork.
Place each formed pastry onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top of each pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving.
