Ingredients

Lemon Panna Cotta

  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 oz unflavored gelatin 1 envelope
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1 cup 2% Greek yogurt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Mixed Berry Compote

  • 2 to 2 1/2 cups fresh berries
  • 2 to 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions

Lemon Panna Cotta

  • Pour lemon juice into a bowl and sprinkle gelatin over the top. Let stand just until gelatin softens - approximately 5 minutes. Do NOT let the gelatin harden.
  • Whisk together sugar and lemon zest in a medium saucepan.
  • Add half and half and Greek Yogurt.
  • Whisk together over medium high heat just until sugar dissolves and mixture is simmering. 2-3 minutes. (Do NOT boil.)
  • Add gelatin mixture and vanilla and continue whisking until gelatin has dissolved and is fully incorporated.
  • Carefully pour into six ramekins or cups and refrigerate until firm. At least 4 hours.

Mixed Berry Compote

  • Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves and berries begin to break down, approximately 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and continue cookies for another 4-6 minutes until compote slightly thickens.
  • Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
  • Refrigerate until panna cotta is set up.
  • Spoon gently over panna cotta immediately before serving.
