Ingredients
Serves Six
11g carb per serving
Vanilla sauce
120 ml heavy (double) whipping cream
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 star anise (optional)
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg yolk
480 ml heavy (double) whipping cream
Cinnamon apples
3 tablespoons butter
3 apples, preferably a type that is firm and tart, e.g.Gravensteiner or Granny Smith (but you may have your own favourite)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Tip:
The sauce goes great with various desserts, where you would normally have served vanilla custard. For example, you can heat a few blackberries or raspberries and serve with the vanilla sauce.
Or why not put it in the freezer and you’ll have a luxurious ice cream!
Please see recipe instructions here
Incorporate cinnamon into your life by:
Adding a cinnamon quill into your morning tea, sprinkling half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon onto your homemade granola or adding a sprinkle of cinnamon into your next bowl of breakfast oatmeal.

Hmmm should be delicious.
A hug and a good week's continuation.
...just the apples is fine with me.
Hello Jan. We seem not use cinnamon in our UK food. But whenever I go abroad it is much more common to see it used. I agree it is especially good with apple with apple stroudel one of my all-time favourite puds.
Looks lovely. I think nutmeg could also taste good with the apples and vanilla sauce.

this looks delicious, we love cinnamon!!
This sounds delish!
Gosh that looks yum! Wonder how it would work with Greek yogurt in place of the cream? Thanks for the info on the Keto diet Jan, I'm really keen!
This is really yummy!
That looks a winner to me!xxx
I can almost smell this dish, it looks so tempting.

Yes, I think it could work well ... and will obviously provide a different flavour - why not give it a try and see.
You may use nutmeg in many different recipes - grate a little on to a broccoli and stilton soup, add some to creamed spinach, and it does taste nice in a cheese sauce which you've just poured over some cauliflower - Yum!

Have a read here for some more information 'Can Greek Yogurt Be Used in Place of Heavy Cream in Baking?' http://oureverydaylife.com/can-greek-yogurt-used-place-heavy-cream-baking-35138.html There are some interesting points in the article.
Speaking personally, for the recipe featured here, I would use heavy (double) cream ... but as I always say ... the choice is always up to the individual reader.
If you should try it with Greek Yogurt do please come back and let us know how you found it.
I hope the above helps
All the best Jan
This looks quite tasty! :)
Mmm - looks delicious! I'm not a big fan of cream though, so I like the idea of using Greek yoghurt.
This looks so delicious! I would definitely like to try to make it sometime, thank you.
Yum, yum, yum. You had me at the title.
Excellent information and great recipe! Big Hugs, thank you!
