Stuffed Crockpot Apples
Your entire house will smell like the holidays when you make these stuffed baked apples in the crockpot!
Ingredients
- 6 medium Granny Smith apples
- 1/4 cup water or apple cider, for crock pot
For the filling:
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
For serving:
- whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)
- honey, maple syrup, or caramel sauce, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Using a melon baller, remove the cores from the apples, leaving the bottom intact.
- In a small bowl, mix together the filling ingredients and melted butter. Spoon the mixture into the top of the apples.
- Prepare the liner of a slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
- Arrange the apples around the bottom of the slow cooker. Add 1/4 cup of water (or apple cider) around the bottom of the apples to help keep them from burning to the crock pot.
- Cook on low for about 2 hours. Watch closely, the apples will begin falling apart if overcooked.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, and drizzle with honey, maple syrup or caramel sauce.
Notes
Sometimes instead of nuts, I like to mix a little granola into the apple stuffing. You can also sprinkle granola over the top when serving.
