How to Make Low-Carb Easy Tiramisu
This low carb version of tiramisu uses a coffee-soaked almond crumble instead of lady fingers. The creamy topping is made of Greek yogurt with a hint of mascarpone cheese for a lighter dessert with the same great taste.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
In a medium skillet over medium heat, toast the almond flour for 3 minutes or until golden, stirring often to avoid burning.
-
In a small bowl, mix the toasted almond flour, 1 1/2 tbsp of the erythritol, cinnamon and salt. Add the espresso and stir. Divide between 6 serving glasses (about 1 heaping tablespoon each).
-
In a medium bowl, mix the yogurt with the mascarpone, remaining 1/4 cup erythritol, rum, orange zest and vanilla.
-
Spoon about 1/3 cup on top of the coffee-almond base in each of the serving glasses. Dust each tiramisu lightly with cocoa powder just before serving.
