Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol sweetener
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and halved
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Butter

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and 1/4 cup of the erythritol. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Pour this into the flour mixture and stir until a dough forms. Knead lightly if needed. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 10 minutes.

Step 5

In another bowl, mix the remaining 1/4 cup erythritol, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Step 6

Toss the apple halves with the lemon juice in a small bowl to prevent browning.

Step 7

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it between two pieces of parchment paper. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.

Step 8

Cut the dough into 4 equal-sized squares. Place an apple half in the center of each square. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture evenly on top of the apples.

Step 9

Fold the corners of the dough up and over each apple, pinching the edges to seal tightly.

Step 10

Place the wrapped apple dumplings in the prepared baking dish.

Step 11

In a saucepan, bring the water and butter to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened.

Step 12

Pour the butter mixture over the dumplings and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.

Step 13

Serve warm with a scoop of low-carb ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
