Vegan Pomegranate Panna Cotta. This dessert is luxurious, delicious and actually very easy to make! Perfect for dessert if you want to impress a special someone!

The panna cotta is so silky and contains the perfect level of sweetness! It’s not overly sweet if you’re wondering. The pomegranate jelly top is so lovely and pairs perfectly with the coconut panna cotta.

All you need for the panna cotta is coconut milk, maple syrup, agar agar powder, vanilla extract. For the pomegranate jelly, you’ll need fresh pomegranate juice squeezed from the seeds, Red Crown Pomegranate Reduction. It’s 100% pure and organic and can be used for multiple recipes, such as a drizzle over ice cream, salads, yogurt. You can also pair this product with cheese and vegetables or use it as a finishing sauce on meat and fish. Red Crown Pomegranate has kindly partnered with me to bring you this special recipe.

Before I get into the recipe, I like to share nutritional facts about the food you’re eating with special regards to pomegranate.
