Ingredients
  

Pastry:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 3 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • 5 tablespoon butter chilled
  • 2 tablespoon ice water

Filling:

  • 80 gram cremini mushrooms
  • 45 gram green onion
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 400 gram ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • cup mozzarella cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt to make the pastry base.
  • Add in the spices.
  • Add the dry ingredients to a food processor. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add these to the food processor as well.
  • Pulse the mixture, slowly adding in the ice-cold water, until a crumbly but solid dough begins to form.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the freezer and place on a Silpat.
  • Add a second Silpat on top of the dough.
  • Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a square shape.
  • Use a cup or cookie cutter to cut circles into the dough. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
  • Place the circular pastries into a whoopie pan. (These are also sold as muffin top pans.) Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 325F. Prep the vegetables by slicing the mushrooms and green onions.
  • Heat up the olive oil in a pan over high heat.
  • Sauté the garlic and green onions until cooked.
  • Add the ground beef to the pan, searing it, and then add in the Worcestershire sauce, cumin, salt, pepper, and cinnamon.
  • Once cooked through, stir in the sliced mushrooms.
  • Once the mushrooms are slightly cooked, add the tomato paste and mustard, mixing this in as well.
  • Spoon the beef mixture evenly into the pastries. Top with the shredded mozzarella.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes and then broil the tops for 3–5 minutes.
  • Let cool completely and serve!
