Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cups Coconut flour
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 cups Ice water
• 2 tablespoons Golden erythritol
• 2 Medium green apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 Egg, beaten, for egg wash

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a food processor, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Pulse to mix.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Slowly add ice water to the mixture, one tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough comes together.

Step 5

Remove the dough from the processor, form it into a ball, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the chopped apples and golden erythritol. Cook until the apples are slightly softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Add ground cinnamon and vanilla extract to the saucepan, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool.

Step 8

Roll out the chilled dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/8 inch thick.

Step 9

Cut the dough into 6 circles using a 4-inch round cutter. Re-roll scraps as needed.

Step 10

Place a spoonful of the apple filling on one half of each dough circle, leaving a border.

Step 11

Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a tight seal.

Step 12

Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet and lightly brush the tops with the beaten egg.

Step 13

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Step 14

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low-carb chausson aux pommes!
