Slow-Cooked, Sweet, and Simple

Recipe from Heidi Minnis

This recipe is the perfect fall dessert and simple to make. I like to throw it into the crockpot before guests come over so the house smells delicious when they arrive. Serving it warm with a scoop of ice cream is a must!

Apple Butterscotch Crisp

Ingredients

• 3 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples (about 3 medium)
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
• 1/3 cup cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding mix
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
• Vanilla ice cream, optional

Directions

1. Place apples in a 1-1/2-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, oats, pudding mix and cinnamon. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apples.
2. Cover and cook on low for 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 hours or until apples are tender. Serve with ice cream if desired.
