Categories     dessert

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
Pinch of kosher salt
1/4 cup heavy cream, chilled
1/4 cup creme fraiche, chilled
2 teaspoons spiced syrup
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 cups mixed berries, rinsed and halved or quartered if large
2 tablespoons chopped Marcona almonds, optional

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the syrup, cinnamon, star anise, cloves and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool completely. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer, discarding the spices. Cool to room temperature.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons of the spiced syrup and vanilla. Using a large whisk or handheld mixer, beat until the cream thickens and soft peaks begin to form (careful not to over whip).
  • Divide the berries among 4 coupe glasses or dessert dishes. Dollop with the whipped creme fraiche and drizzle with 1 to 2 teaspoons of the syrup. Sprinkle with almonds, if using. Leftover syrup will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator in a sealed jar.

BERRIES AND CREAM



Berries and Cream image

This is a simple, lovely way to serve fresh summer berries. I made this for brunch today and found it a refreshing end to the meal. This dish could also be made year-round using unsweetened frozen berries that have been thawed. Note: Preparation time includes time needed for berries to sit at room temperature.
