Ingredients
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons powdered gelatin
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 cup passionfruit pulp
2 tablespoons honey or granulated sugar
Instructions
Sprinkle the powdered gelatin over the cold water in a small bowl and let bloom for about 5 minutes.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract.
Heat gently until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture into serving glasses or molds.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
For the topping, gently warm the passionfruit pulp with honey or sugar until slightly thickened.
Allow the topping to cool, then spoon over the set panna cotta just before serving.
Notes
Do not boil the cream mixture to avoid affecting the gelatin.
Panna cotta should be softly set and slightly jiggly in the center.
