Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 2 cups Spinach
• 3 ounces Feta cheese
• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).

Step 3

In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients, followed by the egg. Knead the dough with your hands (slightly greased to prevent sticking) until it forms a smooth, cohesive ball.

Step 5

Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 6

In a skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil and sauté chopped garlic for 1 minute until fragrant. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, then set aside to cool.

Step 7

Gently pat the cooked spinach mixture with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, and mix it with crumbled feta cheese in a small bowl.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, divide the rolled-out dough into 6 triangles (like a pizza).

Step 9

Place a heaping tablespoon of the spinach and feta filling at the wide end of each triangle. Starting from the wide end, roll the dough toward the tip to form a croissant shape.

Step 10

Place the croissants onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them. Brush the tops with melted unsalted butter for a golden finish.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Enjoy your Low Carb Spinach and Feta Croissants warm or at room temperature!
