Instructions:

For the Choux Pastry:

1. Preheat Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Choux Dough:
   • In a saucepan, combine the butter and water. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
3. Add Dry Ingredients:
   • Reduce heat to low, add almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, and salt to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture forms a dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
4. Cool Slightly:
   • Remove the saucepan from heat and let the dough cool for a few minutes.
5. Add Eggs:
   • Add the eggs to the dough one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Ensure that each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
6. Pipe Dough:
   • Transfer the choux pastry dough to a piping bag. Pipe small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
7. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cream puffs are golden brown and puffed. Allow them to cool completely before filling.

For the Keto Whipped Cream Filling:

1. Whip Heavy Cream:
   • In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until it starts to thicken.
2. Add Sweetener and Vanilla:
   • Add the erythritol (or sweetener of choice) and vanilla extract to the whipped cream. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

Assemble:

1. Cut and Fill Cream Puffs:
   • Once the cream puffs have cooled, cut them in half horizontally. Spoon or pipe the keto whipped cream into the bottom halves.
2. Top and Serve:
   • Place the top halves back onto the cream-filled bottoms. Dust with a sprinkle of powdered erythritol if desired. Serve and enjoy!
