Ingredients

Scale

For the Keto Ladyfingers:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 4 eggs, separated
  • 1/3 cup erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar

For the Mascarpone Filling:

  • 1 1/2 cups mascarpone cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup erythritol (powdered)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Espresso Layer:

  • 1 cup brewed espresso (cooled)
  • 2 tbsp rum or keto-friendly coffee liqueur (optional)

For Dusting:

  • Unsweetened cocoa powder (for topping)

Instructions

  • Make the Keto Ladyfingers:
    • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with 1/3 cup erythritol until pale and creamy. Stir in vanilla extract.
    • In another bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1 tbsp erythritol and beat until stiff peaks form.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder together.
    • Fold the egg yolk mixture into the dry ingredients, then gently fold in the whipped egg whites.
    • Pipe 3-inch long ladyfingers onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let them cool.
  • Prepare the Mascarpone Filling:
    • Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and set aside.
    • In another bowl, beat egg yolks with powdered erythritol over a double boiler for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Let it cool.
    • Mix in the mascarpone and vanilla until smooth, then gently fold in the whipped cream.
  • Assemble the Tiramisu:
    • Briefly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso and layer them in an 8×8-inch dish.
    • Spread half of the mascarpone filling over the ladyfingers.
    • Add another layer of espresso-soaked ladyfingers, then spread the remaining mascarpone mixture on top.
    • Dust with unsweetened cocoa powder.
  • Chill and Serve:
    • Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow flavors to set.

Notes

  • Make sure mascarpone is at room temperature to prevent lumps in the filling.
  • For stronger coffee flavor, use concentrated espresso or add a bit more when soaking the ladyfingers.
