Spinach Pannacotta

Pannacotta is an Italian classic dessert of sweetened cream thickened with gelatin and moulded. A custard-like dessert that pairs well with fresh fruit, a compote of baked fruits, or even just a spoonful of fresh fruit jelly and tastes wonderful with ripe red fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, or sweet cherries.

Easy to make and can be prepared in advance.

Spinach Pannacotta is one of my favourites as it is the healthiest version of the dessert.
