Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 0.5 cup Butter
• 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
• 0.5 cup Almond butter
• 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
• 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract, and mix until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough is formed.

Step 5

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to make it easier to handle.

Step 6

Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into triangles.

Step 7

Place a small spoonful of almond butter at the wide end of each triangle and roll them up towards the narrow end to form croissants.

Step 8

Arrange the croissants on the prepared baking sheet and brush them with a little melted butter if desired.

Step 9

Sprinkle sliced almonds on top of each croissant and lightly press them in so they stick.

Step 10

Bake the croissants for about 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Step 11

Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 12

Dust with powdered erythritol before serving for a touch of sweetness.
