Strawberry Lime Dairy Free Panna Cotta

dairy free panna cotta

I first had panna cotta when I was in Florence, Italy over a decade ago. How I miss those decadent Italian desserts! Panna cotta is traditionally made with a sweetened cream combined with gelatin. Use a high quality gelatin made from pasture raised beef for the best health benefits. Gelatin is a super food that provides amazing benefits such as improved elasticity for our skin as well as protects our joints. In this dairy free panna cotta, I’ve blended the gelatin in coconut milk and them combined with a coconut milk based Greek yogurt and pureed strawberries. Strawberry and lime work great together to give a little bit of tartness to the panna cotta that compliments the tang of the yogurt as well.

If you don’t need to avoid dairy, feel free to use a whole milk Greek yogurt for ultra creaminess. You can also use an unsweetened almond milk in place of the coconut milk for a slightly nutty twist. Either way you make it, the intense fresh and fruity strawberry flavor in this dairy free panna cotta is perfect for a light dessert or even for breakfast!
