Bavarian cream is a dessert similar to custard, but it's made with gelatin, which allows it to hold its shape like panna cotta and is served as a sophisticated treat with fruits, berries, or sweet sauces. Bavarian cream can also be used as a filling for donuts or cakes. It's made with heavy cream, natural vanilla, egg yolks, gelatin, sugar, and whipped cream. The cream is cooked in a double boiler and then set in individual molds or ramekins. Try Bavarian cream with fresh strawberries for a truly delightful take on the classic "strawberries and cream" flavor combination.

We recommend
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the vanilla bean, halved lengthwise, into the cream and bring to a simmer over low heat. Turn off the heat and let sit for 1 hour.
- Remove the pod from the cream and scrape out the seeds, adding them to the cream. Discard the pod. Stir the gelatin into the milk and set aside.
- Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar. Heat the cream again and gradually whisk it into the eggs. Place the mixture over a pan of simmering water and stir until it thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the milk and gelatin.
- Place the bowl in an ice bath and stir until the mixture cools to room temperature.
- Fold in the whipped cream and divide the mixture into six 180 ml (6 fl oz) molds. Refrigerate for 4-5 hours or until set. Remove from the molds and garnish with strawberries.
