In a small sauce pan bring 2 1/4 cups of heavy cream to a simmer.
Place egg Yolks in a small bowl. Add sugar substitute, vanilla extract, Whisk in egg yolks until they are pale yellow, smooth, and fluffy, about 1 minute.
Slowly and while whisking add about 1/4 cup of the cream mixture into the egg yolks. Repeat until all the cream mixture has been incorporated.
Transfer the mixture (now with egg yolks) back into the sauce pan. Continue to cook in medium low heat while whisking.
Once mixture has thickened, remove from the heat and turn burner off.
Strain pastry cream through a fine-mesh sieve set over a heatproof medium bowl. Immediately place plastic wrap touching the surface to prevent the forming of a skin (thin dry layer).
Let it set and cool in the fridge.
While the pastry cream is cooling, whip 3/4 cup of heavy cream until it form stiff picks.
Once the pastry cream is set and completely cooled, mix in the xanthan gum and add whipped cream using a folding motion.
Place the pastry cream in a piping or zip lock bag with a filling tip (narrow and round).
