Equipment
- Skillet
- Hand Mixer
Ingredients
Pancake Ingredients
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup oat fiber
- 3 large eggs separated
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Swerve Confectioners
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon coffee extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- avocado oil for the pan (or clarified butter/ghee)
Mascarpone Cream Filling Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese at room temperature
- 1/2 cup cold heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Swerve Confectioners
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Assembly Ingredients
- 1/3 cup strong brewed coffee at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- To Make the Fluffy Keto Pancakes:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat fiber, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside.
- In a separate clean bowl, use a hand mixer to whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently set these aside.
- In a third bowl, combine the egg yolks, Swerve, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and coffee extract. Beat with a hand mixer for about 2 minutes until well blended.
- Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the wet ingredient mixture.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. The batter should be slightly loose but not watery; add a tiny bit more heavy cream if it's too thick.
- Heat a skillet over low heat and add a little avocado oil (or clarified butter/ghee). Pour about 2-3 tablespoons of batter per pancake to make them roughly 3-4 inches wide.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and cook on low heat for a few minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. This slow cooking with a lid is key for fluffy results! Once done, remove and set aside.
- To Make the Creamy Mascarpone Filling:
- In a bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, Swerve, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped heavy cream into the mascarpone mixture until it's well combined and creamy.
- To Assemble Your Tiramisu Pancakes:
- Place one pancake on a plate.
- Lightly brush some of the room temperature strong brewed coffee over the pancake so it soaks in.
- Spoon a dollop of the creamy mascarpone filling on top.
- Lightly sprinkle some unsweetened cocoa powder over the cream.
- Place another pancake on top and repeat the coffee, cream, and cocoa layering process. Continue until you've built your desired stack!
Notes
The slow cooking with a lid is key for fluffy results! Feel free to adjust the amount of Swerve Confectioners to your preferred sweetness level. For serving, you can optionally dust with more cocoa powder.
