Sugar-Free Panna Cotta (Sweetened with Erythritol or Stevia)
Panna cotta originates from the Piedmont region of Italy, and many variations have been created over the years. Sugar-free panna cotta is a healthier version that reduces the calorie and carbohydrate content of the classic recipe by using sweetener. Imagine how the silky panna cotta melts in your mouth after one bite, while the natural sweetness of the sweeteners and the freshness of the fresh berries create a perfect balance. The secret to the perfect panna cotta is using good quality cream and using the right amount of sweetener so that it doesn't have a bitter aftertaste. Try this version garnished with fresh berries or a little sugar-free fruit sauce to make it even more special!

Preparation Steps
1
Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for 5 minutes, until softened.
2
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, sweetener, and seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Heat over low heat until the sweetener is completely dissolved, but do not boil.
3
Squeeze out the excess water from the softened gelatin sheets. Add them to the warm cream mixture and stir until completely dissolved.
4
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any vanilla bean particles.
5
Pour the mixture into small ramekins or glasses, and let it cool to room temperature.
6
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
7
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries and, if desired, a drizzle of sugar-free fruit sauce for an extra burst of flavor.
