Panna Cotta
Our vanilla bean panna cotta is incredibly smooth and silky, easy to make, and looks impressive when topped with fresh berries.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1/4 c. cold water
- 2 1/4 tsp. (0.25 oz.) envelope unflavored powdered gelatin
- 2 c. heavy cream
- 1/4 c. granulated sugar
- 1/2 vanilla bean split & seeded or 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Fresh seasonal fruit for garnish
Instructions
- Place water in a small bowl. Slowly sprinkle gelatin over the water in a single layer being careful not to pile it as that will prevent the crystals from dissolving properly. Let stand for 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan heat cream sugar, vanilla bean, and vanilla seeds over medium heat; bring just to a boil until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and discard vanilla bean.
- Stir in gelatin and immediately whisk until smooth and dissolved. If the gelatin has not fully dissolved, return the saucepan to the stove over low heat, stirring constantly until dissolved.
- Pour cream into 4 individual glasses or serving dishes. Refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours or until completely set.
- Top with fresh fruit, berries, berry sauce, or lemon curd.
- Panna cotta can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
