ingredients
- 120 gram White chocolate
- 1 piece Vanilla pod
- 60 grams Whipping cream
- 30 grams Orange juice
- 30 grams Almond paste
- pinch Cinnamon
- 1 piece Orange, zest
- 300 ml Plant based milk
- 30 grams Whipping cream
- pinch of Cinnamon
Method
Step 1
Melt the chocolate, almond paste over a Bain Marie until melted. Set aside In a small pot mix the heavy cream, orange zest, the vanilla bean-scraped and the pinch of cinnamon. Bring to a light simmer and immediately remove from the heat. Let it infused for 10-15 minutes. (I love to use a Microplane zester (amazon) to get the finest and best part of the zest so you don’t have to sieve out the peel. This way you are able to keep more flavor in the ganache. ) Add the infused cream into the melted chocolate and emulsify with a hand blender (amazon). While emulsifying pour in the orange juice little by little. Hand blend until you have a smooth and shiny ganache. Let it set in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight.
Step 2
Once your ganache has set heat up your milk to about 85°C. Add about 50g of ganache (or more if you like it sweeter) and blend until you get a smooth and slightly frothy hot chocolate. I like to use either the hand blender (amazon) if im making just one cup for myself or if I have more to make then use a larger blender (amazon) Garnish with the whipped cream, cinnamon, orange zest and orange wedge. Enjoy!
