Layered Panna Cotta

Layered Panna Cotta is a light, smooth and creamy dessert, which serves after a meal. This Layered Panna cotta looks long and complicated, but once you get the layering down, it’s really easy, quick and no failed recipe. It is not only sweet but also creamy treat, festive and elegant showcase for everyone’s favorite. Layered Panna cotta is really perfect dessert. It’s easy, practically foolproof and accommodating to many dietary adjustments, being naturally gluten-free and adaptable to dairy-free and vegan diets. I am using Agar-Agar as a substitute of gelatin, to make vegetarian and vegan friendly.

Tips:

• Layered Panna Cotta can be refrigerated for 5-6 days.

• You can use whole milk instead of coconut/almond milk, I used coconut/almond for vegan recipe.

• You can use gelatin or china grass substitute of agar-agar powder.

• You can use any fruit puree instead of mango, like strawberry, peaches, pomegranate, or berries etc…
