What is the difference between heavy cream vs whipping cream?

Heavy cream has a minimum 36% milkfat, making it the richest option of cream. Whipping cream, on the other hand, can range from 30-36% milkfat. You’re welcome to use either, but heavy whipping cream is the best for creating strong peaks to keep this no-churn apple ice cream nice and soft.

What kind of apples should I use?

I personally like Honeycrisp, but feel free to use your favorites. Other good options include Fuji, Pink Lady, Cosmic Crisp, and Granny Smith Apples.

Should you eat apple pie hot or cold?

How about both?? Top your hot apple pie with a scoop of frozen apple pie ice cream for the best of all worlds.

Ingredients

Scale

Sautéed Apples

2 Honeycrisp apples, peeled & diced
2 tbsp salted butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon

Ice Cream

2 cups heavy cream
14 oz condensed milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
5 graham crackers, separated
Caramel drizzle

Instructions

First add the diced apples, butter, light brown sugar, and cinnamon to a pan on the stove over low-medium heat. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until the apples are softened and the sauce thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool.
Next add the heavy cream to a large mixing bowl. Whip the cream with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Then fold in the condensed milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sauteed apples, and 3 crushed graham cracker sheets. Gently combine, do not overmix.
Next transfer the ice cream to a loaf pan. Pour about half of the ice cream mixture into the pan. Then add 1 crushed graham cracker sheet and a drizzle of caramel sauce. Repeat the process and add the remaining half of the ice cream mixture on top. Then finally another crushed graham cracker sheet and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Cover the ice cream with aluminum foil and place in the freezer. Freeze for 4-5 hours, until completely solid and firm.
Remove the ice cream from the freezer and let thaw for a couple of minutes. Then scoop, serve, and enjoy!
