Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated erythritol
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 ounce Cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Sugar-free red bean paste
• 0 Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, granulated erythritol, and baking powder to combine the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and cream cheese until smooth. If the cream cheese is too firm, microwave it for 10 seconds to soften before mixing.

Step 3

Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.

Step 4

Preheat a taiyaki pan over medium heat and lightly spray both sides of the mold with cooking spray.

Step 5

Pour a small amount of batter into one side of the fish-shaped mold, just enough to cover the bottom.

Step 6

Add a tablespoon of sugar-free red bean paste in the center of the batter, and then pour a little more batter over the filling to cover completely.

Step 7

Close the taiyaki pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until the taiyaki is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Carefully remove the taiyaki from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter and filling.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb taiyaki!
