Slow Cooker Baked Apples

‘Tis the season for lots of apples.  I do love the apple season when the apples are cheaper and we can afford to get them more often!  I was browsing Pinterest the other day and saw lots of different baked apple recipes.  I was thinking that my family would like to try it out but I couldn”t find a recipes that I was happy with.  Finally, I decided to do a little recipe combining and made my own variety.  It’s kind of like apple crisp!  So delicious!

Here’s the Recipe:

Slow Cooker Baked Apples

6-8 Apples (We used Gala)
1/2 cup of oats
1/2 cup of brown sugar
2 t. cinnamon
Butter
 

Directions:

Core your apples with a knife, making sure to remove all of the core, but the very bottom part.

Fill each apple with your mixture.  Place them in the slow cooker.

Put a pat of butter on each apple.

If you have any left over topping, spoon it over the top.  I had to laugh as I was watching how my girls crowded around to get in on the apple making action!

Cook on high for 2-3 hours.  Remove from the slow cooker with tongs and serve on a plate.  So delicious!  (oh wait, I think I already said that!)

As you can see, my apple cracked as it was cooking.  If you don’t want it to crack, you can peel a ring around the top about 1/2 inch in width.  We made them disappear so quickly, the cracks didn’t bother us a bit!
