Ingredients (Serves 6)
- ½ tablespoon cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil, melted
- 1 ½ cups coconut milk (we use Pure Harvest Coco Quench)
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- 2 tablespoons rice malt syrup
- 1 tablespoon grass fed gelatin
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- 1 cup coconut yoghurt
Method
- Lightly oil six panna cotta moulds with coconut oil.
- Place milk, turmeric and rice malt syrup in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring until well combined. Allow to cool and transfer to a large jug.
- Place hot water in a small bowl and gently add the gelatin to the water, stirring vigorously, until the gelatin dissolves.
- Whisk the gelatin into the turmeric milk mixture.
- Add the yoghurt and continuing whisking until well combined.
- Pour into the moulds and place into the fridge for 4 hours or until set.
- To serve, run a butter knife around the edge of the mould to loosen the panna cotta and turn out into your bowl. The panna cotta should have a slight wobble to it! Serve with your choice of berries and nuts and seeds.
