How to make espresso con panna in 5 easy steps
Espresso con panna recipe ingredients
- NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® Espresso pods.
- 4 tbsp double cream
- Sugar or honey (optional)
Method
- Whip your cream with either an electric whisk or a hand whisk (and some elbow grease!) This will need to form stiff peaks but make sure to not over-whisk as then it won’t melt with the espresso.
TIP: You’ll probably need to whisk more cream than you need, otherwise there won’t be enough liquid to stiffen it. Either make a cup for you and a friend or keep the remaining cream in the fridge - Choose your favourite short cup and place it under your NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® Pod Coffee Machine.
- Pop in your NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® Espresso pod and see the delicious coffee pour. If you want a sweeter drink, now is the time to add sugar or honey.
TIP: If you want a longer cup, have a double shot for a stronger coffee flavour! - Spoon the cream on top of the coffee and look at those beautiful tones!
- Either drink the espresso through the cream to taste the strong coffee aromas or give it a stir for a creamy and milky coffee.
Can I make espresso con panna vegan?
Yes, you can make this espresso con panna recipe vegan! Simply swap the double cream with a vegan alternative. Coconut cream or cashew cream are great options that add a subtle nutty flavour.
