Description
Apple Butter Pie with Cinnamon Whipped Cream is a silky, spiced custard-style pie made with rich apple butter and warm fall spices baked into a flaky crust. Topped with fluffy cinnamon whipped cream, it’s cozy, festive, and perfect for autumn or holiday gatherings.
Ingredients
- For the Pie:
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
- 1 cup apple butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp cloves (optional)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- For the Cinnamon Whipped Cream:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges.
- Make the filling: In a bowl, whisk apple butter, heavy cream, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until smooth.
- Fill and bake: Pour mixture into the pie crust. Bake 45–55 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Tent edges with foil if browning too quickly.
- Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate at least 2 hours for clean slices.
- Make cinnamon whipped cream: Beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
- Serve: Slice pie and top with generous spoonfuls of cinnamon whipped cream.
Notes
- Add a splash of maple syrup to the filling for deeper flavor.
- Great with a gingersnap crust instead of traditional pie crust.
- Best served chilled or slightly cool.
- Top with caramel drizzle for extra indulgence.
