Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams plain unsweetened yogurt
- 250 ml heavy cream
- 80 grams granulated sugar
- 3 sheets gelatin sheets
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 ml water (for gelatin soaking)
- 100 grams fresh berries or fruit compote (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Soak the gelatin sheets in a bowl of cold water for 5-10 minutes to soften them.
In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Heat over low-medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Do not let the mixture boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat. Squeeze out excess water from the softened gelatin sheets and add them to the warm cream mixture, stirring until fully dissolved.
Stir in the vanilla extract and allow the mixture to cool slightly, but not completely, ensuring it stays liquid.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth. Gradually pour the cooled cream mixture into the yogurt, whisking continuously until fully combined.
Pour the mixture into serving glasses, ramekins, or silicone molds. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
To serve, unmold the Bavarese if using molds, or serve it directly in glasses or ramekins. Garnish with fresh berries, fruit compote, or your favorite topping.
