Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cups Coconut flour
• 0.5 cups Cold unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 unit Large egg
• 2 tablespoons Cold water
• 1 unit Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
• 0.5 cups Shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
• 0.25 cups Chopped cooked bacon or ham

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt.

Step 2

Cube the cold unsalted butter and add it to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the cream cheese and continue to mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, beat one large egg and add it to the mixture.

Step 6

Mix the ingredients until a dough begins to form.

Step 7

Slowly add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until a cohesive dough is formed.

Step 8

Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 9

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 10

Once the dough is chilled, roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4-inch thickness.

Step 11

Cut the dough into 4-inch squares.

Step 12

In the center of each square, place a tablespoon of shredded cheese and a tablespoon of chopped cooked bacon or ham.

Step 13

Brush the edges of each square with the egg wash.

Step 14

Fold each square into a triangle by bringing opposite corners together and sealing the edges by pressing them with a fork.

Step 15

Place the assembled pastries on the lined baking sheet.

Step 16

Brush the tops of the pastries with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 17

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.

Step 18

Cool the pastries slightly before serving.
