Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a small pan, melt the ghee over medium heat and lightly toast the chopped pistachios and sliced almonds until golden. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt and heavy cream until smooth.
Gradually add erythritol to the yogurt mixture, whisking continuously to ensure it dissolves properly.
Stir in the cardamom powder and saffron strands to enhance the aroma and flavor of the mixture.
Pour the mixture into an oven-safe dish or individual ramekins.
Scatter the toasted nuts over the top of the yogurt mixture evenly for a crunchy texture.
Place the dish or ramekins in the preheated oven. Bake for about 10-12 minutes until the top is slightly set.
Turn off the oven and let the Mishti Doi cool inside the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
Once cooled, remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled.
Serve the Keto Mishti Doi cold, optionally garnished with a few more saffron strands or additional chopped nuts.
