CINNAMON WHIPPED CREAM
The inspiration for the whipped cream came from Bon Appetit December 2002 issue. I've changed the measurements to my own taste. This whipped cream is delicious on anything with apples such as pie, cobbler and apple bread (see recipe 76946 for a great combo). Also would be nice on top of hot chocolate or coffee!

Steps:
- Pour heavy cream into chilled glass bowl (I use a small but deep glass bowl).
- Beat on high speed.
- Slowly add sugar, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
- Tip: When making whipped cream I dampen a paper towel with vinegar and wipe the inside of a glass bowl with it.
- Continue to wipe until dry and place inside freezer with beaters or whisk.
- Leave in freezer for 10 minutes to chill then use to make whipped cream.
SKILLET APPLE PIE WITH CINNAMON WHIPPED CREAM
Steps:
- For the skillet apple pie: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Melt the butter in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet; set aside 1 tablespoon of the melted butter for the top crust. To the melted butter, add the brown sugar and melt them together on medium heat, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and line the skillet with one of the pie crusts. Pour the apple pie filling over the crust and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon sugar. Use the second pie crust to cover the filling. Brush the top with the reserved melted butter, then evenly sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar on top. Cut vents in the middle of the pie. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve hot, topped with a generous dollop of cinnamon whipped cream. For the cinnamon whipped cream: Chill a large metal mixing bowl and a wire beater attachment in the freezer for about 20 minutes. Pour the cream, cinnamon and sugar into the cold mixing bowl and beat until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes; the mixture should hold its shape when dropped from a spoon. Don't overbeat or you'll have sweetened butter! Recipe courtesy of Trisha Yearwood

Steps:
- Peel/core apples and cut into thick slices.
- Toss together the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg either in a bowl or put in a zippered plastic bag and shake until coated.
- Cook apple mixture, 2 tbls. of water and 1 tbls. of butter in a medium sized saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes or until apples are tender - but not mushy.
- Serve just as is or top with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping.
Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
- Peel and core your apples before slicing them. This will make it easier to eat the pie and will also prevent the apples from browning.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. You want the apples to have enough room to cook evenly. If you overcrowd the skillet, the apples will steam instead of caramelize.
- Cook the apples over medium heat. This will help them to caramelize and develop a rich flavor.
- Stir the apples frequently. This will prevent them from sticking to the skillet and will also help them to cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the apples. You want them to be tender, but not mushy.
- Use a pre-made pie crust to save time. You can also make your own pie crust if you prefer.
- Brush the edges of the pie crust with milk before baking. This will help the crust to brown and will also give it a shiny appearance.
- Serve the pie warm with a scoop of cinnamon whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
