Lavender panna cotta

This is my all-time favorite panna cotta flavour...lavender! The lavender adds such an incredible freshness and the consistency is light and delightful. It was a big hit at my Christmas party this year and is a really simple dessert to feed a lot of people! This recipe serves 8-12.

Ingredients:


2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
1 cup condensed milk
1/4 cup honey (more or less to taste)
2 heaped tsp. dried lavender
4 tbsp. cold water
3 tsp. powdered gelatin

Method:

In a small bowl let the gelatin bloom in cold water.

Heat the heavy cream, milk, condensed milk, honey with lavender until just heated through and bubbles form on the outside.  Turn off the heat, add the gelatin to the warm milk mixture, whisk until dissolved completely. Cover and let the lavender infuse for 2 minutes.

Strain the mixture through a sieve into serving cups or a large bowl. When cool, cover it with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours but preferably overnight.

Serve drizzled with honey.
