Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 ounces cream cheese
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 6 slices deli ham
• 6 slices cheddar cheese, sliced

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, then heat for an additional 30 seconds until the cheese is melted and can be mixed smoothly.

Step 4

Add the dry ingredients to the melted cheese mixture, along with the eggs and melted butter. Mix until a dough forms.

Step 5

Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 6

Cut the dough into six squares. Place a slice of ham and a slice of cheddar cheese on each square.

Step 7

Carefully roll each square into a croissant shape, starting from one corner and folding towards the opposite corner.

Step 8

Place the croissants seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the croissants are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly croissant ham and cheese sandwiches warm!
