Apple Crisp Ice Cream | Fabtastic Eats Annnnnnd #12daysofapples commences! I had to start with ice cream, I did. One because it’s still hot enough in most places to enjoy it, like heeeeree. Two, because this turned out even better than I imagined it would, so I want you to make it sooner rather than later. & three, just because I want to celebrate.

Apple Crisp Ice Cream | Fabtastic EatsI’m ready for Fall finally! yeppp…I was out for the count for about three days at the end of last week, so sick I couldn’t move off the couch, so sick my husband had to stay home from work to watch our kids, so sick, I ended up at the ER, just sooo sick. So when I finally snapped out of it on Sunday morning, I wanted to do alll the things Id been thinking about for three solid days while not being able to move a muscle.

I wanted to bake a bazillion fall things, so I did. I wanted to decorate with all my favorite fall colors, so I did. I wanted to go buy my favorite fall candle scents, so I did. On top of all that, we cleaned our house top to bottom because my parents are flying in tonight, and we watched a ton of Football.

It was a fantastic Sunday. And it ended with a big bowl of this apple crisp ice cream! (drizzled with caramel!! <—defffffinitely do that!)

Apple Crisp Ice Cream | Fabtastic Eats It’s literally like eating apple crisp topped with ice cream, but in reverse, and creamier. It’s so superb! So much flavor, and there’s REAL streusel in there, I swear I could just eat handfuls of that..but mixed with sweet cinnamon ice cream, I was all over that.

Don’t fret over the long list of steps, it’s really simple. You make the ice cream base and while it’s chilling you throw together the streusel in the food processor in about 2.5 minutes, and the caramelized apples in about ten. Super easy, and soooooo perfect for Fall!

Apple Crisp Ice Cream | Fabtastic Eats Don’t forget to drizzle with caramel if you have it..ahhmygod.
