Sink your spoon into these super smooth panna cotta recipes. The beauty lies in their silky texture, and the fact they can be prepared ahead of time and simply unmoulded when it’s time to serve.
Our coffee caramel version pairs a classic vanilla panna cotta with coffee-spiked caramel and coffee praline; though if you’re looking for a lighter panna cotta recipe, the yoghurt panna cotta with blood orange and juniper is just the ticket. Momofuku Milk Bar maestro Christina Tosi puts her nostalgic spin on the dessert with her Cereal Milk panna cotta, and for a very Australian version of the Italian treat, Sydney’s Alberto’s Lounge shares their recipe for a panna cotta made with macadamia milk.
