How to Make the Cinnamon Sauce

You would need: 
500 ml milk
3 egg yolks
2 tbsp sugar
1 vanilla bean, vanilla paste or vanilla extract
2 tbsp potato starch
1 tbsp cinnamon
powdered sugar

Instructions
– Beat egg yolk, starch cinnamon and sugar in a small pot, then add hot milk.
– Heat the sauce but don’t bring it to a boil as the egg yolk should not get clotted but the starch needs a fairly high temperature.
– Stir continuously while heating.
– Strain it by using a sieve and serve it hot or semi hot with the baked apple slices.
