Directions
- For Maple Whipped Cream, place heavy whipping cream, sugar and maple syrup in a cold, stainless steel bowl. Whip slowly until stiff peaks form. Use immediately or refrigerate until needed.
- For Cinnamon Toasted Oats, preheat oven to 350°F. Combine whole oats, melted butter, dark brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, and spread on a lined baking sheet. Toast oats until golden brown, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- For Porter-Poached Apples, wash and core apples. Place in cold water mixed with lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Bring porter, maple syrup, lemon juice, mace and cinnamon stick to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; submerge apples in poaching liquid. Poach 8 to 10 minutes, or until apples begin to soften and look shiny.
- Remove apples from liquid, plate, and garnish with Maple Whipped Cream, Cinnamon Toasted Oats and fresh seasonal berries.
