Panna Cotta

Serves 10

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

1 heaping teaspoon unflavored gelatin

1½ tablespoons water  1 cup 0% Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1½ cups whole milk, divided

1/3 cup honey

1/8 teaspoon salt

Balsamic Strawberries

10 fresh strawberries, sliced

4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 

2½ teaspoons honey

Directions:

For the Panna Cotta:

In a small bowl, add the gelatin and water. Stir and set aside. 

In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, vanilla, and 1 cup of milk and reserve. 

In a small saucepan, heat the other ½ cup of milk with the honey, and simmer over medium heat for several minutes until the honey has completely dissolved into the milk. Turn the heat off and add the softened gelatin to the sauce.  Stir well and then slowly add the milk mixture into the yogurt mixture. Gently stir to combine. 

Pour the panna cotta mixture into 10 6-ounce ramekins and freeze for 45 minutes. If you have more time, place the ramekins in the fridge overnight. 

For the Balsamic Strawberries:

In a small glass bowl, add the sliced strawberries, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Let the strawberries sit and macerate for 30 minutes.

To Serve:

Take out the set panna cotta, and top each ramekin with 1 tablespoon of the macerated strawberries.
