Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-ounce each) Salmon fillets
• 2 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh dill
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 cups (fresh) Spinach leaves
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add in the butter and 2 eggs, and pulse until the dough starts to come together. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add spinach and sauté until wilted. Transfer wilted spinach to a bowl and mix in cream cheese, dill, and garlic powder. Set aside.

Step 5

On a floured surface (using almond flour), roll out the chilled dough into a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Place a piece of salmon at the center of each rectangular dough piece.

Step 7

Spread the spinach and cream cheese mixture over each salmon fillet.

Step 8

Carefully fold the dough over the salmon and filling, pressing the edges to seal the parcels.

Step 9

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg with the heavy cream to make an egg wash.

Step 10

Brush the tops of the dough-wrapped salmon with the egg wash.

Step 11

Place the parcels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the salmon is cooked through.

Step 13

Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh dill if desired.
