Calamansi Paleo Panna Cotta - AIP Compliant!

A round serving of calamansi Paleo panna cotta on a green plate, with raspberries and blueberries next to it.

This Calamansi Paleo Panna Cotta is dairy free, AIP compliant and bursting with bright, tropical citrus flavour from the Calamansi & Coconut!

Have I mentioned how much I love Calamansi Juice?

I mean, you know know that I love citrus in general, but calamansi juice is on a whole other level.

I happened across it one day while exploring Seafood City, an amazing Filipino grocery store about 30 minutes away.

They had actual calamansi fruits - tiny little limes - as well as calamansi lemonade, calamansi soda, and calamansi juice in little bottles - like you'd buy RealLemon - for cooking.

I think I tried the lemonade and soda that first day, and had to make the trek back out there to buy *all the calamansi everything* a few days later. I was hooked!

What is a Calamansi?

Basically, it's like a lime, but tastes like a combo of orange, lime, and something vaguely tropical.

Absolutely intoxicating, now I use it basically anywhere I normally would have used lemon or lime juice.

When I was still low carbing, I made a quick lemonade from that juice, fake sugar, and some water - it was actually fantastic.

Anyway. Yes. LOVE Calamansi juice.

Dairy-Free, Paleo Panna Cotta

So, recently I decided to try making a kind of faux panna cotta from it.

It was while I was still on AIP (which I've had to modify, due to difficulty obtaining fresh vegetables during the pandemic!), so I had to do it dairy free, and without processed sugar.

Luckily, honey and coconut milk work REALLY well with Calamansi - I wouldn't doubt that they'd actually be preferable to dairy milk and white sugar, to be quite honest.

This Calamansi Coconut Panna Cotta works up incredibly quickly - just a few minutes of work, with great flavour and texture payoff.

A couple notes, though:

1 - With the use of coconut milk (the canned type!) - you may end up with some separation in the final panna cotta. This is totally normal, and kind of fun. 🙂

2. If you can't find Calamansi, you can substitute whatever citrus juice you like. Fresh squeezed will be best, but store-bought is also fine!
