Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml Heavy cream
- 30 ml Buttermilk
- 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 15 g Powdered sugar (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and buttermilk until well combined.
Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let it sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours, or until the mixture thickens to the consistency of sour cream.
Once thickened, stir in the ground cinnamon until fully incorporated. If you'd like it slightly sweetened, sift in the powdered sugar and mix well.
Transfer the cinnamon creme fraiche to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Serve chilled as a topping for desserts, pancakes, waffles, or fresh fruit. Enjoy!
