Crockpot Caramel Apple Crumble – Adapted from How Sweet It Is

Ingredients

• 1/4 + 1/3 C brown sugar, divided
• 1/4 C sugar
• 8 large apples (crisp and tart are recommended); we used Haralson & Honey Crisp
• 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, divided
• 1 C oats
• 1/4 C white whole wheat flour
• pinch of salt
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 3 T butter, softened

Directions

Mix together the 1/4 C brown sugar and 1/4 C white sugar in the bottom of a large crockpot. 

Peel and cut the apples into chunks and arrange them over the top. 

Sprinkle the apples with 1 tsp. cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg, if you’re up for it.

Meanwhile, mix together 1 C oats, 1/3 C brown sugar, 1/4 C flour, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and a pinch of salt.  Add in 3 T melted butter and stir until well coated. 

Mmmm… don’t snitch. 

Spread the oatmeal topping out over the apple mixture. 

Cover and cook on high for 2-4 hours, or until the apples are tender.  When apples are crisp-tender, crack the lid off the crockpot a bit, unplug and allow the dessert to sit for 30-60 minutes before serving.  Serve warm, with ice cream and drizzled with the caramel syrup from the base of the crockpot. 

Enjoy!
