Crock Pot Apple Crisp

One year ago today I posted the driveway apple crisp story and recipe, today it's this one for making crisp in the crockpot. I made this last week and in the rush forgot to take a picture! I've done it this way many times and it's delish :)

• 6 apples
• 2 T. lemon  juice
• 1/3 c. sugar
• 1 T. cornstarch
• 1/2 t. ginger
• 1/2 t. cinnamon

for the topping

• 1 c. flour
• 1/2 c. brown sugar
• 1/2 c. white sugar
• 1/2 t. cinnamon
• 1/4 t. nutmeg
• 1/2 c. butter
• pinch of salt

Peel and chop the apples; add the remaining ingredients (lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, ginger, cinnamon) and stir to combine with the apples. Place in a crockpot sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.

Mix together the dry ingredients for the topping, cut in the butter until it is about the size of peas (you can use two forks, a pastry blender, or your fingers - although your fingers will warm the butter and make it a little harder to incorporate, it still works though). Cover the apples with the topping. 

Cook on LOW heat for 4 hours; prop the lid open with a wooden spoon and cook another hour - letting air in for the final hour helps the topping get crispy.
