Health Benefits of This Keto Tiramisu

Collagen Supports Bone and Joint Health

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body, and it provides support to bones, joints, and muscles. As a crucial part of your connective tissue, it allows your bones and joints to remain mobile and fluid[*].

Research shows that as you age and lose some of your bone and cartilage integrity, collagen supplementation may increase bone mineral density and have a protective effect on the cartilage around your joints[*].

Gluten-Free and Sugar-Free

Traditional tiramisu is a classic Italian dessert that’s typically made with ladyfingers, a type of flour-based cookie. In this recipe, you’re skipping the wheat flour and going with keto-friendly alternatives — coconut flour and almond flour.

And instead of loading on the sugar, this keto tiramisu recipe calls for keto-friendly sweeteners like swerve and stevia. Lucky for you, these changes make your dessert much more nutritious, while remaining incredibly delicious.

In a small bowl, whisk your separated egg yolks together and set aside.

Next, using a hand mixer, mix the separated egg whites until they form soft peaks, then gently fold the egg yolks into the egg white mixture, put aside.

To your large bowl, add the melted butter to your dry ingredients, whisking to combine, then fold in your egg mixture.

Now that your cake mixture is ready to go, grab a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread the batter with a spatula, so it’s about 2 centimeters thick. Bake, the cake mixture for 12 to 14 minutes, or until a toothpick, comes out clean.

Meanwhile, mix together your coffee drizzle, and set aside. And whip together the mascarpone mixture and set aside.

Once the cake is done cooking, let it cool, then slice the cake mixture into squares.

Now for the fun part — layer the tiramisu as follows: cake pieces, pour of coffee, mascarpone cream mixture, optional chocolate shavings, and repeat again.

Give the top of your tiramisu a light dusting with cocoa powder, and enjoy.

Refrigerate any leftovers for later.

Cooking Tips:

If this is your first time making tiramisu, be sure to go slow when pouring the coffee so you don’t soak it through too much.

Top your tiramisu with whipped cream or shaved keto chocolate pieces for some extra flair.

If you’re not a fan of stevia or swerve, you can feel free to use monk fruit as your sweetener.

If you’re caffeine-sensitive you may want to stay away from using a strong coffee in this recipe. Instead, opt for a decaf coffee or a milder roast.
