Indulge in Exotic Delights with Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta

Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and delicious dessert recipe that combines the creamy richness of panna cotta with the earthy bitterness of matcha green tea. This Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta is the perfect treat for a special occasion or just to indulge in a sweet and exotic flavor combination.

To make this Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta, you will need the following ingredients:

• 400ml coconut milk
• 10g gelatin
• 100g sugar
• 2 tbsp matcha powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Be sure to have the following kitchen tools on hand:

• saucepan
• whisk
• ramekins

Start by pouring the coconut milk into a saucepan over low heat. Add the gelatin and sugar, and whisk until fully dissolved. Once the mixture is smooth and well-combined, remove from heat and stir in the matcha powder and vanilla extract.

Divide the mixture evenly among ramekins and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set. You’ll know the panna cotta is ready when it has a slight jiggle to it.

When serving, you can top each Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta with a sprinkle of extra matcha powder for a pop of color and added flavor. The creamy coconut milk balances out the boldness of the matcha, creating a truly unique and delightful dessert experience.

This recipe makes approximately 6 servings, with each serving weighing around 150g. One serving of this Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta is approximately 250 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to lightly toast some unsweetened coconut flakes and use them as a garnish for added texture and a hint of nuttiness. The crunch of the toasted coconut pairs wonderfully with the smoothness of the panna cotta.

I hope you give this Coconut Matcha Panna Cotta a try and enjoy the exotic and indulgent flavors it has to offer. Feel free to customize it to your liking by adjusting the sweetness or adding other toppings. Happy cooking!
