The Best Panna Cotta Recipe

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

vanilla bean

🥗Healthier: vanilla extract

💰Cheaper: vanilla essence

Vanilla extract is easier to find and less expensive.

fruit puree

🥗Healthier: fresh fruit

💰Cheaper: canned fruit

Fresh fruit provides natural sweetness and flavor.

Add milk, heavy whipped cream, and sugar into a pot.

Stir the mixture and let it simmer without boiling.

Turn off the heat when the mixture is warm and steaming, around 145 degrees.

Dissolve gelatine in a splash of water and let it sit for 30 seconds to a minute.

Add the dissolved gelatine to the warm milk mixture and whisk until there are no clumps.

Add vanilla extract to the mixture and let it cool down to about 130-140 degrees before adding sour cream.

Once cooled, whisk in the sour cream until smooth and lump-free.

Pour the mixture into measuring cups, leaving space at the top for the berry topping.

Refrigerate the panna cottas for at least an hour until set.

In a pan, add raspberries and sugar, and simmer until the raspberries break down and juices are released.

Remove the raspberry mixture from heat and let it cool in the fridge.

Once the panna cottas are set, add the cooled raspberry topping on top.

Optionally, add fresh berries and mint leaves for garnish.
