Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 0.25 cup Erythritol
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 items Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups Avocado oil, for frying
• 0.25 cup Powdered erythritol, for dusting

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, xanthan gum, and sea salt. Whisk together until well mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms. The dough should be moist but not sticky.

Step 4

Sprinkle a clean surface with a little bit of almond flour. Turn the dough out onto this surface and lightly knead to ensure uniformity.

Step 5

Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness using a rolling pin.

Step 6

Cut the dough into 2-inch squares using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter.

Step 7

In a deep, heavy-bottomed pan, heat the avocado oil to 350°F (175°C).

Step 8

Carefully drop 2-3 pieces of dough into the hot oil at a time. Fry each side for about 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Use a slotted spoon to remove the beignets from the oil. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 10

Once all beignets are fried, dust them generously with powdered erythritol before serving.

Step 11

Enjoy these keto-friendly beignets fresh, ideally served warm!
