Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 envelope (0.25 oz) unflavored gelatin
- ¼ cup ube halaya (purple yam jam)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Fresh fruits or whipped cream for topping (optional)
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is steaming but not boiling. Stir occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves fully.
- While the cream mixture is heating, sprinkle the gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
- Once the cream mixture is hot, remove it from the heat. Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm mixture and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Now, add the ube halaya, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the pan. Whisk everything together until it’s smooth and well combined. You should see that beautiful purple color pop!
- Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or a large mold. Allow it to cool slightly, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Once set, carefully unmold the Panna Cotta onto a plate (if using a mold) or simply serve it in the cups. If desired, top with fresh fruits or a dollop of whipped cream for that extra flair.
- Savor each creamy bite and enjoy the delightful flavors of this Ube Panna Cotta!
