If you're following a keto diet but still want a delicious pastry, these keto cheese danishes are the perfect solution. They are not only low in carbs but also full of flavor, making them a delicious treat for any time of day.



 Ingredients:


- 1 ½ cups of almond flour

- 2 tablespoons of coconut flour

- 1 teaspoon of baking powder

- 2 tablespoons of granulated erythritol

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

- 2 ounces of cream cheese

- 1 large egg

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract



To fill


- 4 ounces cream cheese, soft

- 2 tablespoons of powdered erythritol

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

- 1 tablespoon heavy cream


 For the topping:

- Sugar-free strawberry jam or your favorite keto-friendly fruit preserves.



Instructions:

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


 2. In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and granulated erythritol.


 3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt mozzarella cheese and 2 ounces cream cheese together, heating in 30-second intervals until completely melted and combined.


 4. Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix in the eggs and vanilla extract until a dough forms. It is easiest to mix it by hand.



 2. Give the Danish form:

 1. Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet.

 2. Flatten each ball into a disk, making a small indentation in the center with your thumb.


 3. Prepare the filling:

 1. In a small bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.


 2. Fill about a tablespoon of cream cheese into the indentation of each dough disk.


 4. Add the toppings:

 1. Spread a small amount of sugar-free strawberry jam or fruit preserves of your choice on top of the cream cheese filling.


5. Bake:

 1. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the Danish is golden brown and the filling is set.


 2. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.



Tips:

- Make sure the mozzarella cheese is completely melted and mixed with the cream cheese so that the dough comes together properly.

- Feel free to use different sugar-free jams or fruit preserves to change up the flavors.

- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy cold or lightly warmed in the microwave.


These Keto Cheese Danishes are a fantastic way to indulge your sweet tooth while still sticking to your low-carb lifestyle. Enjoy the flaky crust and creamy filling without the guilt!

Enjoy your baking!
