Brennan’s Apples with Double Cream

Filed under: Recipes — bnnc @ 4:06 pm

8 firm red apples
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 2/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 tablespoons sugar

Wash and core apples (leave the skin on). Place in baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake in 400 degree oven about 50 minutes. While apples are baking, mix together cream, vanilla and sugar and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve – the colder the better! When apples come out of the oven, pour about 1/2 cup of cream mixture over each and serve immediately.

This recipe is from the famous restaurant Brennan’s in New Orleans and was included in the September 2002 newsletter
