Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and mozzarella cheese. Microwave on high for about 1-2 minutes until melted then stir to combine.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients along with the eggs. Mix well until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more almond flour.
Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle roughly 30x20 cm in size.
In a small bowl, mix chopped walnuts, erythritol sweetener, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together.
Spread the walnut mixture over the dough evenly.
Cut the dough into triangles (like slicing a pizza). You should aim for 8 triangles.
Starting from the wide end, roll each triangle towards the tip to create a crescent shape.
Place the crescents on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a rack before serving.
