Ingredients
1 ½ cups almond flour
3 tbsp butter, melted
1 large egg (for dough)
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp erythritol (or keto sweetener of choice, adjust to taste)
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 egg yolk (for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, and egg until a soft dough forms. Chill 10 minutes if sticky.
Divide dough into 4 portions. Flatten each into a circle, pressing an indent in the center.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, erythritol, and vanilla until smooth. Spoon into the centers of each dough round.
Brush edges with egg yolk for golden color.
Bake 15–18 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and set.
Cool slightly before serving warm.
Notes
For extra sweetness, drizzle with a keto-friendly glaze (powdered erythritol + almond milk).
Can be stored in the fridge for 3–4 days, reheated before serving.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or lemon zest to the filling for flavor variety.
For a more pastry-like texture, chill dough longer before shaping.
