Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.25 cup Warm water
• 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 cup Butter (for filling, softened)
• 0.25 cup Granulated erythritol (for filling)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the eggs, melted butter, cream cheese, and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms. Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes to help it firm up.

Step 4

While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. Combine the softened butter, granulated erythritol, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and set aside.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into an oval shape on a clean, flat surface lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.

Step 6

Spread a small amount of the prepared filling (about 1 teaspoon) onto the center of each flattened dough piece. Carefully roll the dough from one end to the other, enclosing the filling, and place seam-side down on the baking sheet.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 8

Optional: Brush the tops of the rolled bread with a little melted butter and sprinkle lightly with granulated erythritol for extra sweetness.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow the low-carb Spanish bread to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy with a hot beverage or as a snack!
