Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Xylitol or erythritol sweetener
• 1 large Egg
• 2 cups Ricotta cheese (sugar-free)
• 1 cup Mascarpone cheese
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Pistachios, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
• 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, and half the sweetener.

Step 3

Melt the unsalted butter and mix it into the dry ingredients along with the egg. Stir until a dough forms.

Step 4

Roll out the dough on a sheet of parchment paper to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.

Step 5

Cut circles from the dough using a 4-inch round cutter. Wrap each circle around a cannoli form and seal the edges with a little water.

Step 6

Place wrapped forms on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cannoli shells are firm.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the shells cool for a few minutes, then carefully remove them from the forms and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 8

In a large bowl, beat together the ricotta cheese, mascarpone cheese, remaining sweetener, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.

Step 9

Gently fold in the chopped pistachios and dark chocolate chips.

Step 10

Use a piping bag to fill each cooled cannoli shell with the cream mixture.

Step 11

Optional: Garnish the ends with additional chopped pistachios or a sprinkle of cocoa powder before serving.
