Tips
When it comes to ingredient substitution, there are a variety of options you can explore for this dessert. To make it vegan-friendly, you can replace the traditional dairy-based panna cotta with a coconut milk or almond milk alternative. For the lemon curd, you can use a plant-based butter substitute and replace the eggs with a mixture of cornstarch and water. Additionally, you can swap out the lavender for a different herb or floral flavor, such as rosemary or elderflower, to create a unique twist on this delightful dessert.
