Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 6 medium apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Topping

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Apples: Peel and slice 6 medium apples into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking. Combine the sliced apples with 1/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg in a bowl, stirring gently until the apples are evenly coated with the spices and sugar.
  2. Make the Topping: In a separate bowl, mix together 1 cup of old-fashioned oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 1/4 cup flour. Pour in 1/4 cup melted butter and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly and well combined.
  3. Assemble in Crockpot: Spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick spray or lightly grease it. Spread the apple mixture evenly in the bottom of the crockpot. Then sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples.
  4. Cook: Cover and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking to keep the heat consistent.
  5. Serve: Once cooked, serve warm as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent dessert.

Notes

  • For best results, use tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp to balance sweetness.
  • You can add a pinch of salt to the topping to enhance flavors.
  • To make it gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave.
  • Adjust sugar amounts based on the sweetness of your apples.
