Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.75 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
Grease the inside of your Crock Pot with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Place them into the Crock Pot.
Sprinkle the apples with granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the apples evenly.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and rolled oats.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped pecans or walnuts to the mixture.
Add vanilla extract to the topping and mix until combined.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the spiced apple mixture in the Crock Pot.
Cover the Crock Pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours or on HIGH for 2.5 hours, until the apples are tender and the topping is golden and crisp.
Once done, turn off the Crock Pot and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
