How to Make Apple Maple Fool

  1. Peel, core, and dice 2 large Granny Smith apples into ½-inch pieces.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the diced apples, ⅓ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup maple syrup, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and a pinch of cinnamon.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the apples are tender but not mushy.
  4. Remove from heat and let the apple mixture cool completely.
  5. Once cooled, transfer the apple mixture to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
  6. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled apple mixture.
  8. Spoon the Apple Maple Fool into serving bowls or glasses.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with extra maple syrup and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving (optional).
