Panna cotta made from coconut milk

My version of the classic Italian dessert from heaven: panna cotta. It is vegan because I use coconut milk and agar agar. Furthermore I don't use white sugar but coconut flower sugar and maple syrup.

Ingredients

  • 2 2 cups coconut milk (480 - 500 ml)
  • 4 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ ½ cup maple syrup (120 ml)
  • ½ ½ cup coconut flower sugar (90 grams)
  • ½ ½ tsp agar agar
  • 1 1 tsp Bourbon vanilla powder or extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the coconut milk, agar agar, sugar, maple syrup, vanilla to a (sauce)pan.
  2. Loosen up the panna cotta on the edges. I use a flat and rounded knife. Don't torture the pudding, just push it a little bit so it lets go from the inside of the cups. If you have flexible cups you can squeeze them as well to get the sides loose.
  3. Bring to a soft boil while whisking.
  4. If the pudding doesn't come out easily, you can dip them in a small bowl or cup with hot water. Just for a few seconds. That will melt the outside of the pudding just enough.
  5. Let it bubble and rise for a bit more than just a few seconds (take 10). Then give it another whisk. Turn off the heat and let the milk go down again.
  6. Serve upside down on the plates with a maple syrup topping.
  7. Fill the pudding cups, it will probably set a bit even more, so keep adding until it doesn't anymore. Let the puddings firm up for about 3 to 4 hours. You can put them in the fridge but it's not necessary for firming.

Notes

  • I make my pudding always as soft as possible. When in doubt about the measurements taking a bit more agar agar is better than taking a bit less.
