Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a food processor, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Pulse until mixed.

In a bowl, combine the diced ham, shredded cheese, crushed garlic, and chopped chives. Mix well.
