Greek Yogurt Honey Panna Cotta

DifficultyBeginner

This Greek Yogurt Honey Panna Cotta is a lighter, tangier version of the traditional Italian custard. Cream and yogurt combine to create a smooth, silky texture, while honey adds natural sweetness and a hint of floral aroma. It's no-bake, easy to make, and incredibly elegant when served with fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of extra honey.
