I love this recipe, and so does my husband! The spice combination is perfect. I bake mine in the oven, 375 for 35-40 min.

Apple crisp in the slow cooker is a great idea. Either a nice dessert at home that doesn't require a close eye, or a nice pot luck offering - which was why I tried this. Recipe DEFINITELY needs a cup of oats in the topping - never had an apple crisp without oats. Only had pecans on hand, but I like them more for this than walnuts anyway. It wasn't too sweet, was actually perfect, but next time I'll use all brown sugar for the flavor. I didn't care for the nutmeg or ginger, but my husband did, so it'll stay because he's more of a sweet fan than me. I used a 3lb bag of Macs, and cut the apples into 8 chunks. I should have used twice as much because we like a lot of apples in our crisp, so next time I'll double that part and cook on high 3 hours and then continue cooking it uncovered for one hour. Very yummy.

Very yummy but a bit too sugary. I added 2 handfuls of oatmeal to mine just cuz I'm an oatmeal fan and it turned out very well.

I'm not a big apple fan but this was really good. Like many others, I added about a cup of oats to the topping mixture. Can't imagine eating it without the oats. Used Smart Balance butter and fat free vanilla yogurt to try to make it healthier. I will make this again when fall comes.

Great recipe! I made a double batch for potluck today. The spice ratio was spot on! I substituted old fashioned oats for the walnuts (allergy safe.) And added some oats to the apples as well. Everyone loved it, they scraped the crockpot clean!! Thanks for the great recipe, I will definately make again.

Great recipe! I make this when I have extra apples around but found that I like adding "honeycrisp" apples with an equal amount of ganny smith apples. I also add the oatmeal to the topping. My family and friends love it and I get asked to make it all the time.

Wouldn't have believed you could make apple crisp in a crock pot, but this recipe proves it to be true. My hints/tips: I sliced a 3 lb. of Ida Red apples, put in a large ziploc bag along with 1/2 cup br. sugar, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg and 1 tblsp. cornstarch. Close bag and shake to coat apples well. I took contents of the bag and put in an even layer in crock pot. I made my own topping using 1 1/4 cup rolled oats(not instant), 3/4 cup br. sugar, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon & 1/4 tsp nutmeg. Cut in 1/2 cup of room temp. butter and knead with fingers until crumbly. Spread evenly over apples and baked according to instructions. Leaving the lid off really does make the "crisp" yummy! Served it with french vanilla ice cream. Happy for seconds!

This is a definte keeper for our family! I doubled the nutmeg and cinammon which was perfect for us! I cooked on high for two hours and then turned lid sideways for another hour on high. The topping crisped nicely and it tasted GREAT! I used a crock pot liner which made cleanup a snap. Thanks for sharing this recipe, SDROSIE!

Taste is wonderful, but I think there was too much topping with this one...I prefer a lighter covering of the streusel topping and this was just too thick for our taste.
