Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 0.25 cups coconut flour
• 0.5 cups erythritol sweetener
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 2 large egg
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol sweetener, and baking powder.

Step 3

Melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter and add it to the dry ingredients along with 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until a dough forms.

Step 4

Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes, then roll the dough into 8 equal balls and flatten each into a disk on the prepared baking sheet, creating a slight indentation in each center to hold the filling.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, 1 egg, 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of erythritol sweetener until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Spoon the cream cheese mixture evenly into the center of each disk.

Step 7

In another bowl, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and xanthan gum. Stir until the berries are evenly coated.

Step 8

Distribute the blueberry mixture on top of the cream cheese filling on each danish.

Step 9

Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and brush the edges of the dough with it.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the filling is set.

Step 11

Allow the danishes to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Enjoy your low-carb blueberry danish warm or at room temperature.
