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, erythritol, and xanthan gum.
Add the chilled and diced butter to the dry ingredients, using a pastry cutter or fork to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add cold water, mixing well after each tablespoon, until the dough comes together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, toss the sliced apple with cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to coat.
Once the dough is chilled, roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to a rectangular shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Sprinkle the apple mixture evenly over the dough, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.
Sprinkle the crushed walnuts over the apples.
Gently roll the dough from one end to the other, using the parchment paper to help guide it into a tight roll.
Seal the edges by pinching them together and place the strudel seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Beat the egg with the almond milk in a small bowl, then brush the mixture over the strudel.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the strudel to cool for a few minutes before dusting with powdered erythritol.
Slice and serve warm.
