Coffee in a different way! These vegan panna cotta are super easy to make und only require a few ingredients. They have a lovely coffee flavour. Add the chocolate sauce … yum!
For sweeteneing I have used dates, which also add soe more creaminess to the texture. And thanks to the sunflower seeds the recipe is not only vegan and gluten-free but also nut-free.
While these panna cotta use whole coffee beans you can also use cocoa powder and create a yummy choclate flavoured version.
Panna cotta are one of my favourite vegan desserts because they are so light and not so filling. Also, they are so easy to make! Simply blend, heat up, pour into moulds, done! Well, OK you gotta have some patience while they set 😉
