Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated erythritol.
Add eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the dry ingredients and stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about three-quarters full.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the donuts are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the custard filling, heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, powdered erythritol, and xanthan gum until smooth.
Slowly pour the hot cream into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
Return the custard mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the custard from heat and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to thicken further.
Once the custard has cooled, transfer it to a piping bag fitted with a small, round tip.
Using a skewer or knife, poke a hole into the side of each donut.
Pipe the custard filling into each donut until filled.
Serve the low-carb custard-filled donuts immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
