- The Panna Cotta in this recipe shows the serving jars have been tilted to make the dessert more interesting. You do not have to tilt your jars if you do not want to.
- You can alternatively make your panna cotta in ramekins. If you run a knife around the edges of the ramekin, it will make it easier to release the panna cotta when you turn it upside down.
- Be careful not to overcook the vegan panna cotta. Overcooking can cause your panna cotta to solidify too much and you will get a "brick" that is too solid and difficult to break with a spoon.
People ask what does panna cotta taste like.
When you look at panna cotta you see molded dairy that resembles almost a cross between gelatin and pudding. This is covered with a fruit sauce.
This vegan panna cotta is no exception.
I would describe this panna cotta in the same way.
It is a creamy, yet vegan, molded dessert with delicious fruit on top.
I would cover it with plastic wrap.

- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the vegan heavy cream, the sugar alternative, and two tablespoons of the oat milk. Whisk the ingredients often as they heat and bring this to a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve the agar-agar in the remaining oat milk.
- When the mixture in the saucepan begins to boil, whisk the agar-agar mixture into the saucepan. Whisk constituently for two minutes while it boils and then turn off the heat and remove the saucepan from the burner.
- Use a kitchen funnel to evenly pour the heated mixture into each glass, jar, or ramekin. Allow this to cool to room temperature and then place them in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- To prepare the strawberry sauce, process the strawberries in a blender or food processor then transfer them to a small saucepan. Add the water and the remaining sugar alternative and cook on medium heat until thickened (10-12 minutes). Allow this to cool a bit before topping the panna cotta.
