Vanilla Bean Whipped Cream Recipes

VANILLA WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Put the cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whip until foamy and then add the sugar and vanilla bean paste or extract. Beat until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat or the cream will become grainy.

VANILLA WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Pour heavy cream into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip at medium-high speed until it begins to thicken. Add vanilla bean paste once it starts to thicken. Mix in lemon juice. Pour in sugar and continue mixing until stiff peaks form.

VANILLA BEAN WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Chill the bowl and whisk attachment of an electric mixer. Place cream in a medium bowl. Cut vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape seeds into cream. Add bean to cream; whisk to combine. Cover mixture and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Strain cream mixture through a fine mesh sieve into chilled bowl of an electric mixer. Transfer bowl to mixer fitted with chilled whisk attachment; beat on medium speed for 1 minute.
• With the mixer running, sprinkle in sugar. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until soft peaks form. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate, up to 2 hours.

FRESH VANILLA BEAN WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Place a large mixing bowl over another large mixing bowl filled with ice. Add the heavy cream and vanilla bean seeds to the bowl on top. Sift the sugar over the mixture. With a balloon whisk, beat the mixture vigorously until the cream reaches soft peaks. Stop immediately. Refrigerate until ready to use.

APPLE CINNAMON BREAD PUDDING WITH VANILLA BEAN WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• For the bread pudding: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. and place a rack in the center of the oven. Lightly grease four 6-ounce heatproof ramekins with butter. Place the ramekins into a baking dish that is large enough to hold them without touching. Place the bread cubes, apples and raisins in the ramekins, dividing the ingredients evenly.
• Using a whisk, beat the eggs, half-and-half, brown sugar, butter, Calvados, vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and a pinch of kosher salt in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Carefully pour the custard over the bread cubes, pressing the bread cubes down so they are covered with the custard. Set aside to allow the bread to absorb the custard, about 15 minutes.
• Prepare a water bath: Carefully pour enough hot water into the baking dish so that the water is halfway up the sides of the ramekins. (A water bath is used to provide temperature protection for the egg custard.)
• Bake until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes. Another way to judge whether the puddings are fully baked is to gently press down on the center of each. If any uncooked custard comes up to the top, the pudding needs to be baked a little longer. Remove the bread puddings from the water bath and cool slightly. The puddings can be served warm or slightly chilled.
• Meanwhile, make the vanilla bean whipped cream: Put the heavy cream and vanilla bean seeds in a large bowl. Whisk until soft peaks form. Serve immediately with the puddings or refrigerate until ready to use.
