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.

Ingredients:

  • 6 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions:

Step 1: Lightly grease slow cooker with cooking spray.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, mix flour, oats, and brown sugar. Set aside.

Step 3: In a large bowl, gently toss apples with lemon juice, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch. Place apples into bottom of slow cooker.

Step 4: Evenly cover apples with topping mixture, then sprinkle cubes of butter evenly over the top. Cover and cook for 2 ½ hours on high or 4 hours on low.

Step 5: Remove the slow cooker lid for the final 15 – 20 minutes to allow the topping to crisp. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

This apple crisp is the perfect fall treat.

    This looks so delish! I don’t have any regular sugar or flour. But I’m thinking of trying it with the coconut sugar & coconut flour I have on hand.

    I use the slow-cooker to make the apple filling for my Grandma’s stack cake. It’s so much easier.
