Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Butter, melted
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 6 tablespoons Stevia or preferred sugar substitute
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together melted butter and one egg. Add this to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.

Step 4

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

Step 5

In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add one egg, vanilla extract, lemon juice, stevia, and lemon zest, and mix until creamy and well combined.

Step 6

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.

Step 7

Carefully roll the dough into a log, starting from one of the longer sides, and place it seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Cut shallow slits in the top of the roll, about 1/2 inch apart, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Step 9

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and set.

Step 10

Allow the Danish to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your sugar-free treat!
