Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cups Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
• 0.5 cups Vegan butter (cold)
• 0.75 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Erythritol (optional, for a subtle sweetness)
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, ground flaxseed, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, erythritol (if using), and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

Cut the vegan butter into small cubes and add it to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar to make a vegan buttermilk substitute. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to curdle slightly.

Step 5

Gradually add the vegan buttermilk to the dry mixture and stir until a dough begins to form. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be soft but not sticky.

Step 6

Place the dough onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper and shape it into a rectangle. Using a rolling pin, roll it out into a thin, even sheet about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 7

Cut the dough into long triangles. Starting from the base of each triangle, gently roll the dough towards the point to form a croissant shape. Tuck the tips slightly underneath to prevent unrolling during baking.

Step 8

Arrange the croissants on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each piece for expansion.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the croissants with a little almond milk to promote browning.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 11

Allow the croissants to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
