  4. For the topping: peel the pumpkin and apples and cut into cubes. Marinate with the brown sugar and cinnamon, put into a saucepan, cover and stew in the oven at 320 °F until tender. Blend the mixture and allow to cool.
  5. Lightly whip the cold QimiQ Whip until completely smooth, ensuring that the mixture is completely incorporated (especially the bottom and sides of bowl).
