Instructions
Part 1: Cooked Apples
Stir together diced apples, brown sugar, and flour in a medium bowl. Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium, then add apples. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften--about 15-20 minutes. Add the granulated sugar, stir, drop the heat to low, and cover. Cook for 5 additional minutes and pour into a dish, allowing it to cool completely. Wipe out the skillet before moving on to the crumb.
5 Medium Apples (Honeycrisp and Granny Smith mixed ideally), ¼ Cup Light Brown Sugar, 1 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour, 2 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, 2 Tbsp Granulated Sugar
Part 2: The Crisp
Whisk the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or two forks until the mixture looks crumbly and there are no large pieces left.
½ Cup All-Purpose Flour, ½ Cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats, ⅔ Cup Light Brown Sugar, ¾ Tsp Ground Cinnamon, ½ Tsp Ground Nutmeg, ¼ Tsp Kosher Salt, ⅓ Cup Unsalted Butter
Warm the same skillet used for the apples on medium-low heat. Add the crisp mixture to the skillet and spread evenly. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats just begin to brown, about 8-10 minutes. Pour into a dish and allow to cool as you work on the ice cream. Stir the mixture every few minutes as it is cooling.Note: The mixture will harden as it cools, and stirring it prevents it from hardening all in one piece.
Part 3: No-Churn Ice Cream and Assembly
Line a 9"x5" loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, stir together the condensed milk, vanilla, and salt. In a large bowl, whip the cold cream with a large whisk until stiff peaks form. This can also be done using a stand or electric hand mixer. Gently fold the condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined.
14 Oz Can Sweetened Condensed Milk, 2 Tsp Vanilla Extract, 1 Pinch Kosher Salt, 2 Cups Heavy Cream
Assemble the ice cream as follows starting from the bottom:Ice Cream --> Apples --> Crisp --> Ice Cream --> Apples --> Crisp --> Ice Cream --> Apples --> CrispCover, freeze for 4-8 hours, and then enjoy. I usually let the ice cream sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes before scooping and serving. Enjoy!
