Bring the milk and cream to a boil with the Vanille Bleue. Add the peach purée and the stevia.

Remove from the heat, let cool to 60°C, and add the gelatin. Pour the mixture into the silicone mold and place in the freezer until fully set.

Unmold and thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

Coconut crumble

Ingredients
  • Shredded coconut100 g
  • Butter (cut into small pieces)60 g
  • Stevia5 g
  • Egg whites25 mL

Mix the shredded coconut, butter, and stevia in a large bowl. Rub between your fingertips to obtain a crumbly texture.

Add the egg white and blend until a ball of dough forms. Roll the dough out thinly and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.

Bake at 160°C for 10–12 minutes. Once golden, remove from the oven. Cut into the desired shape and let cool.

03

  • Raspberries50 g
  • Lemon juice1 tbsp
  • Water30 g
  • Stevia30 g
  • Agar-agar5 g

Assembly

Unmold the panna cotta and let it thaw in the refrigerator for 3–4 hours on the serving plate. Cut the crumble dough into a rectangular shape and place it next to the panna cotta. Decorate with red berry coulis and whipped cream. Add a little water to the coulis to obtain a thinner sauce, mix with the peach brunoise, and arrange on the plate.

Prepare the peach purée

Immerse the fresh peaches (unpeeled) in boiling water for 2 minutes, then plunge them into cold water. Peel the peaches, cut them, and remove the pit.

Place the peach pieces in a saucepan with a little water. Simmer for 15 minutes, until the pieces soften. You may add the Vanille Bleue for an extra hint of aroma.

Remove from the heat and drain well. Purée the peaches without adding water, as it would become too runny.

Keeps for 6 to 8 months in the freezer.
