Crock-Pot Warm Apple Crisp

If you thought you couldn't make a delicious dessert, think twice!!! The only skill you need for this recipe is the ability to peel and slice an apple, and the rest is taken care of by the brilliant crock-pot! And no one will even know how simple it was for you when you assemble this Warm Apple Crisp over a scoop of ice cream!

Do not miss an opportunity to make this one! I made this at work a few years back, and it not only had the office smelling like heaven, but it was a total crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients & Recipe:

  • 4-6 apples, peeled, cored and sliced (use a variety of apples, maybe some Jonathan's and/or some Granny Smith's)
  • 1/2 cup of quick-cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbls. butter or margarine
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water

Begin by spraying your crock-pot with cooking spray, and place the apple slices on the bottom. Gently, pour in the water over the apple slices.

In a medium sized bowl, combine the oats, sugar, flour, butter and cinnamon- use a fork to combine until crumbly. Sprinkle the mixture over the apples. Cover the crock-pot and cook on high for 2 hours or cook on low for 4 hours. Serve in a deep bowl with scoop of vanilla ice cream!

You Could Also Try...

  • Add in a cup of fresh cranberries when you toss in the apple slices
  • Add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (pecan, walnuts...) to the oat/sugar mixture
