Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
• 2 minced Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Parsley
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Allspice
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese together. Stir until smooth and combined.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the melted cheese mixture with almond flour and beaten eggs. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and ground beef to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through.

Step 6

Stir in the tomato paste, salt, black pepper, allspice, and lemon juice. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, mixing well.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Set the filling aside to cool slightly.

Step 8

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it into a small circle on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Place approximately 2 tablespoons of the meat filling in the center of each dough circle.

Step 10

Fold the edges of the dough slightly over the filling, leaving the center exposed to form an open pie.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the dough is golden and cooked through.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
