CROCK POT APPLE CRISP RECIPE

I do love apple crisp recipe but I will admit this was my first time trying it in a crock pot and… oh my word.  Talk about easy and the house smelled amazing too.

And it would be even better by adding some toffee chips and pecans to the top, right?

This took almost no time to throw together and it was delicious!

Here’s a handy tip to remember if you are making a crisp style dessert in a slow cooker.  Once the dessert is done baking, turn off the slow cooker and remove the lid, shaking off excess liquid from the steam and wipe it dry.  Replace the lid leaving it cracked by about an inch while the dessert cools for an hour and this will help the top become even crispier.

  4. Hi Claire,
    This looks AMAZING!! Thank you for posting it.
    I want to try this up at our camp. Do you know if it would work if I doubled or even tripled the recipe? I have a large crock pot that could easily fit it. I need to feed 24 people.
    Thanks so much for the help if you can.

  9. Made this for the 4th of July weekend and it was great!! Loved the simplicity of the recipe and the end result was so delicious. I know I used more pecans than the recipe called for and toasted them first, but other than that I followed your recipe to the letter, cooked for about 4 1/2 – 5 hours on low and it was perfect! (In fact, I’m having some for breakfast today!)
