Panna Cotta is a rich, decadent dessert that’s is also so easy to do! I love mine paired with something tart and this time of year when cranberries are in season, a cranberry compote does just the trick. It also looks so pretty too.
Normally, Panna Cotta recipes are made with gelatin but you can also make it with Agar Agar a plant based thickener. You can buy it online or in health stores too. I like this brand. http://amzn.to/2fFmLKN
If you would like to see how you work with Agar Agar, I have a Greek Yogurt Breakfast Panna Cotta recipe that shows how to use it, Click here to watch: http://bit.ly/1OGaWKT

BETH’S PANNA COTTA WITH CRANBERRY COMPOTE
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
1 cup (240 ml) milk
¼ cup (50 g) sugar
1 vanilla bean, scraped of seeds
1 packet gelatin (2 ½ tsp) or 2 tbsp (30 ml) agar agar
FOR COMPOTE:
1 ½ cups (340 ml) cranberry juice
¼ cup (60 ml) fresh orange juice
1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
1 tsp (5 ml) orange zest
1/3 cup (50 g) fresh cranberries
For Garnish
1 Orange segmented
2 tbsp (30 ml) Pomegranate seeds
METHOD:
In a large sauce pan combine heavy cream, milk, sugar and vanilla bean seeds and pod. Heat on medium high until simmering and vanilla seeds have risen to the top.
Add gelatin, whisk to combine and simmer for 5 minutes stirring occasionally until gelatin is dissolved.
Set aside to cool.
Pour cream base through a fine mesh sieve, transferring to a heat safe Pyrex pitcher. Then pour into serving glasses. Refrigerate uncovered 4 hours or overnight.
For the compote, add juices, sugar, zest and cranberries in a shallow sautee pan. Bring to a boil and reduce by at least half. Break down cranberries by mashing with a fork. Continue to simmer until sauce is slightly syrupy and coats the back of a spoon. Transfer to a heat safe container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
To serve, dollop compote on the center of each panna cotta, and top with orange segments and fresh pomegranate seeds.
NOTE: Both the panna cottas and compote can be made the day ahead, just don’t top with compote until moments before serving.

Looks fantastic Beth. I have never used agar agar in my kitchen. will give it a try
I could try make it but it's really hard finding cranberry here.Could you suggest other type of (suitable) tart fruit?So I could make it. Love the background music! What its name of music really want to hear it. Hope you have a lovely day there Beth!
Such a simple and elegant dessert! I am always so happy when a new video from you shows up in my feed, because I love everything about them. The editing, the music and of course the delicious ideas. Thank you!
I've never had panna cotta do to the gelatin, but since nowadays being vegan is so trendy there are more available products (like agar agar) that can mimic ingredients in traditional recipes. Sorry that you have to, but thank you for being mindful in suggesting alternative ingredients. On a side note, I love your recipes, but if I were to make everything you made for the holiday videos, I would NEVER get out of the kitchen LOL. I'm still backtracking on your recipes from last year, like your chocolate pecan pie :-)
Hi beth! I love panna cotta! This looks delicious I want to make it (I made cremr brûlée yesterday). I noticed you say "'my panna cotta recipe". Since you're sharing your recipes online, how do you make sure no one "steals" your recipe and call it their own ? I always wonder this about successful chef you tubers. Thanks!
Beth, could you do some dessert recipes that are dairy free? I really love these ideas but sadly can't eat them :(
Hi Beth, what a wonderful idea for an elegant and delicious looking dessert, I love it, thank you
Yum! I love panna cotta and the flavor combination of the vanilla with cranberries and orange is fabulous! :)
can u just use half and half?
My family is doing a chopped style competition for Christmas and I'm totally going to bust this recipe out! I feel like most people fail when they try panna cotta on cooking competitions but your recipes never let me down (your French macaron recipe was the basis for my first successful batch of macarons)!
