Ingredients

1 cup finely ground almond flour
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water only if necessary
2 tablespoons butter for frying
Toppings or sauce of choice

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Stir well. Add the ricotta, Parmesan, and egg. Stir until a dough forms. Add water only if the dough is too stiff.
Form the dough into a ball. Wet your hands. Knead the dough 2-3 times to bring it together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
Remove from refrigerator and discard the plastic wrap. Cut the ball into 2. Roll one ball at a time into a long log. Cut into 1” pieces.
Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the butter. When melted, add the gnocchi to the pan. Fry until golden on one side, then flip and fry on the other side, about 4 minutes per side.
Serve with grated Parmesan cheese, toasted walnuts, and crispy sage, or dress with pesto or tomato sauce.

Notes

If the dough is stiff, add a small amount of water to loosen it up.
You can replace the xanthan gum with 3 teaspoons of unflavored gelatin, if necessary.
