Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, granulated erythritol, baking powder, and cinnamon. Whisk together until well combined.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and cream cheese together in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

Add the raisins and optional chopped nuts. Fold them gently into the dough until evenly distributed.

Scoop tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Using slightly damp hands or the back of a spoon, gently flatten each scoop of dough into a round disc.

Step 8

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

Remove from the oven and allow the pastries to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
