Blueberry Yogurt Panna Cotta

I made this delicious, and VERY simple, recipe for dessert last night. But it was eaten before I could take a photo! But here is a photo from the web - and strangely, they are the very same bowls I have and made it in.



So here is the recipe.

3 1/2 teaspoons gelatine powder
600mls thickened cream
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste, extract or essence
1 cup Greek style yoghurt
3/4 cup fresh or frozen berries of choice (I actually used cherries)

1. Pour 1/4 cup cold water into a small bowl. Sprinkle over gelatine. Leave to absorb.
2. Combine cream, sugar and vanilla in a small pan and bring to a simmer. Stir in gelatine mixture and whisk until dissolved. Remove and whisk through yoghurt. Divide berries between nine 1/2 cup moulds. Pour over cream mixture and refrigerate until set (about 3 hours). 

The only modification I made was that when I was ready to add the gelatine, it was quite thick and I didn't think it would mix in well. So I added some of the hot cream to the gelatine and made a paste before adding it back to the cream mixture. I think this helped it dissolve without lumps.

It was delicious and really, really quick and easy.

  1. This looks lovely, my husband has gotten us another separator so I would love to try this with our own cream. Thank you for sharing this on Good Morning Mondays. Blessings

  2. I miss my own milk and cream! I have a sweet Jersey called Izzy, but she hasn't had a calf for over a year so no milk at the moment!
