Lemon Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Blueberries Recipe

Lemon Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Blueberries Recipe

  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries (preferably wild), thawed
  1. Pour half-and-half in a small saucepan and sprinkle gelatin over it; let sit until gelatin softens, about 5 minutes. Place saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, for 3 minutes or until gelatin dissolves completely. Add sugar and stir constantly over medium heat until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk, lemon zest, and juice. Slowly pour in half-and-half mixture, stirring constantly. Divide blueberries among four 8-ounce glass or ceramic custard cups. Pour mixture over blueberries, dividing evenly among the four cups. Chill until set, about 2 hours, and serve.
