  • 1/4 cup granulated erythritol (use monk fruit sweetener for an alternative)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (essential ingredient for keto baking)

    Dietary Swaps and Alternatives

    How to Make Keto Ladyfingers – Step by Step

     

    Step 1: Preparing the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Step 2: Egg Yolks Mixture

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, half of the erythritol, and vanilla extract until the mixture is pale and frothy, approximately 2-3 minutes.

    Step 3: Beating Egg Whites

  • In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually add the remaining erythritol to achieve glossy, stiff peaks.

    Step 4: Combining Mixtures

  • Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites, ensuring it’s well combined but not deflated.

    Step 5: Adding Dry Ingredients

  • Sift almond flour and baking powder over the egg mixture.
  • Gently fold until no lumps remain for a uniform batter.

    Step 6: Piping and Baking

  • Use a piping bag or a spoon to drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in finger-shaped portions.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden.

    Step 7: Cooling

  • Remove the ladyfingers from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
