Blueberry Panna Cotta

Since I picked 22 pounds of blueberries this morning, I decided to put a blueberry recipe on my Blog. This was in the Parade section of the Buffalo News last Sunday. I have not made it yet but intend to do so. If you make it and like it, let me know how it is.

2 T. cold water
1 ½ tsp. unflavored gelatin
2 containers (6 oz. each) light blueberry yogurt
½ c. heavy cream
1 T. honey
1 c. fresh blueberries, for serving
1 tsp. sugar, for serving

1. Pour cold water into a micro-safe cup and sprinkle with gelatin. Wait 5 minutes. Heat in microwave 15 seconds. Gently whisk together the yogurt, cream & honey, then stir in gelatin.

2. Divide the mixture up into 6 small glasses. Chill at least 3 hours. Run knife along edges to unmold onto plates.

3. Mix the blueberries with the sugar. Spoon an equal amount besides each panna cotta. Serve.

I tried a modified version of this recipe, a lower fat and calorie version and it was very good. I used fat free half-and-half, plus fat free and sugar free blueberry yogurt. However, fat free half-and-half isn't as thick as heavy cream, so it wasn't as firm as it would have been with heavy cream. Right now, as I type this, I am retrying it, with slightly more gelatin in it.
