How to Make Apple Slice With Creamy Topping

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the apple slices: Peel, core, and thinly slice 6 medium apples. Arrange them neatly in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Evenly sprinkle the sugar mixture over the apple slices.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup milk.
  6. Pour the cream mixture evenly over the apples.
  7. Bake for 55 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or cold!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
