Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 0.25 cups coconut flour
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 4 oz cream cheese
• 0.25 cups granulated erythritol
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 oz guava paste
• 0.25 tsp sea salt

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, and sea salt together. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, beat the unsalted butter, cream cheese, and granulated erythritol until the mixture is creamy and well combined.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. The dough should be soft yet firm enough to roll.

Step 6

Lightly flour a flat surface with some almond flour and roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.

Step 7

Cut the rolled dough into 3-inch squares.

Step 8

Cut the guava paste into small strips, approximately 1/2 inch wide and 3 inches long.

Step 9

Place a strip of guava paste onto each square of dough.

Step 10

Fold each square in half to create a triangle, then use a fork to seal the edges by pressing them down.

Step 11

Transfer the triangles onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 12

Bake the pastries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.

Step 13

Remove the pastries from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your low carb guava pastries!
