As we dive into fall, this ice cream is a cool treat while the weather is still warm, but with a touch of autumn flavors. Plus, it does not require an ice cream maker and is so easy to whip up.

This thick, creamy ice cream is filled with caramel, apples, and plenty of cinnamon!
One of the best things about this ice cream, apart from it’s apple pie like flavor, is how ridiculously simple it is to put together.
There’s no custard base, no ice cream maker, and honestly, really no effort involved in this process.
Plus, this ice cream is ultra creamy. It really doesn’t get any better than that.
If you’re still in the summer spirit, make my toasted marshmallow ice cream instead.

Ingredients
- 2 medium apples, chopped
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp white sugar

- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 14oz can of sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Over medium-low heat, cook chopped apples, butter, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the apples have softened, about 6-7 minutes (as the apples cook down, the brown sugar and butter will turn into a caramel sauce). Remove from heat, and allow the mixture to cool.
- With a mixer, whip the heavy cream until it forms peaks (depending upon the speed of your mixture, this could take anywhere from 4-7 minutes or so).
- In a separate bowl, mix together sweetened condensed milk and the apples (including all of the liquid, as that’s the tasty caramel!).
