I’m so ready for the flavors of fall! Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Apple Crisp is a warm and comforting fall dessert that is easy to prepare. It’s exactly the type of recipe you want on a chilly fall day. I’m a sponsored blog partner with Mirum Shopper and Crock-Pot® brand, and this is my latest slow cooker recipe creation.
Think about how awesome this dessert recipe is for the holidays. While your oven is filled with turkey, ham, and sides, this Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Apple Crisp can be doing its own thing over in your Crock-Pot® slow cooker.
I just love a homemade apple pie, but let’s face it. Making a pie crust from scratch is a wee bit intimidating. This apple crisp recipe gives you all the same wonderful flavors with a lot less work. One of the many things I love about using my Crock-Pot® slow cooker.

To make this recipe you’ll first prepare the topping, and then the apple mixture. While the lemon juice helps, you don’t want to leave your apples sitting around too long or they will brown. This dessert assembles quickly and can be baked on the high setting if you like, so you’ll have dessert ready for your friends and family in no time.
Also, don’t forget to remove the lid for the last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking time, so your topping will get nice and crisp. That crisp topping is such a nice contrast to the soft apples.

Apple Crisp is one of my many favorite desserts. They used to have it a lot at different restaurants now slim to none have them. I love the outer part of the crisp with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzled on top.
