Silky greek yogurt panna cotta is piled high with juicy honey roasted strawberries for a luxurious and simple summer dessert!
Hello from the extreme heat zone of July. ??
The oven is staying off for the foreseeable future and we’re directing all eyes on this greek yogurt panna cotta.
With piles upon piles of honey roast strawberries. Aaaand I’m just now realizing that roasting definitely involves the oven. ??
Summer: 1. Sarah: 0. REGARDLESS, this panna cotta is literally a summer necessity right now. You’ll only have your oven on for 15-ish minutes, guys, promise.
We’re talking cool, SILKY as heck panna cotta that literally melts in your mouth it’s so creamy and rich. While at the same time lightened up, thanks to the almighty greek yogurt.
And as if summer strawberries weren’t amazing just by themselves…we’re taking it a step further and drizzling them in honey and roasting ’em up. Y’all, it’s just pure juicy, sweet, sticky strawberry heaven.
Let’s make greek yogurt panna cotta together! Prep is as follows >>
Panna cotta. Literally SO so easy to mix up and you can easily prep these the night before too. Gelatin, a little whipping cream + milk, a little sugar, vanilla, and greek yogurt make up the base.
The longest part is waiting for these little guys to chill. You CANNOT rush the chilling process of panna cotta and they need a good 4+ hours to set.
Honey strawberries. Literally we’re just drizzling halved strawberries with honey, tossing them together on a sheet pan, and sending them to the oven for 15-20 minutes until the strawberries begin to burst and get juicy.
For serving these panna cottas, feel free to just leave them in the ramekins and top them with the strawberries if you want to keep things simple.
Alternatively, if you’re looking for more of a showy dessert, run a knife around the panna cottas and very gently tap on a serving plate to release them. Cover ’em with all the roast strawberries they can physically hold. ♥
This is just one of those simple summer pleasures, friends. The panna cotta is rich and creamy. Paired with the juicy sweet strawberries and it’s just summer perfection.
I like to garnish these beauties with a sprinkle of toasted almonds + a sprig of fresh mint for a little extra texture and color. It really makes ’em POP off the plate.
Yep, that’s summer’s finest right there. >>
More strawberry beauties you should definitely be making next! ♥
