Sebastian Joe's - Apple Crisp

Apple Crisp - Apple Cinnamon Ice Cream with an Oatmeal Swirl

The other day, I went back to Sebastian Joe's in the Linden Hills neighborhood of Minneapolis to see if they had anything interesting to try.  I found a couple of pints and had them packed and took them home.  Today I crack open the first of those pints.  Apple Crisp is the first pint -- an apple-cinnamon base with an oatmeal swirl.  It is a fall flavor and fall is rapidly approaching.  Let's check it out!

Opening the pint, I see the light beige color of the apple-cinnamon base.  I can also tell right away that this ice cream is thick.  It almost looks like cookie dough.  Digging in, I verify that the ice cream is indeed quite thick.  It is also very apple-y.  This is great and intense apple flavor with a nice dash of cinnamon in the mix.  This is very good!  There is a bit of oatmeal in the mix as well.  Not as much as other pie-based flavors but enough to create a change of texture once in a while.

This is an excellent implementation of an apple-pie ice cream flavor!  The apple-pie-like flavors that I have had before from Talenti and Sweet Science both included caramel in the mix and the caramel was the best part of each of those flavors.  This pint from Sebastian Joe's has the best apple flavor hands down.  This is excellent stuff.
