Kefir Panna Cotta Recipe

Italian · Dessert · 15 min total

A creamy, tangy twist on classic Italian panna cotta, made with kefir for a probiotic-rich dessert that's light and refreshing.

Ingredients

• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 teaspoons powdered gelatin (about 1 packet)
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups plain kefir (full-fat preferred)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup of the milk. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
2. In a small saucepan, combine remaining 3/4 cup milk and sugar. Heat over medium, stirring, until sugar dissolves and mixture is hot but not boiling.
3. Remove from heat. Add bloomed gelatin and stir until completely dissolved. Stir in vanilla extract.
4. Let mixture cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes. Then whisk in kefir until smooth.
5. Divide mixture among 4 ramekins or glasses. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or overnight.
6. To serve, run a knife around edges and invert onto plates, or serve in glasses.

Tips

• For a lighter texture, use low-fat kefir, but full-fat yields creamier results.
• Top with fresh berries or a fruit coulis for added flavor.
• Panna cotta can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
