Slow-Cooked Praline Apple Crisp


We have 2 apple trees so I've been looking for different ways to use them. I found this recipe at http://www.pillsbury.com/. I love it because of the oatmeal, brown sugar and toffee bit combination.


6 medium-size crisp tart apples (Granny Smith
or Braebum), peeled if desired, cut into 1/2
-inch-thick slices (about 6 cups)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup toffee bits
Ice cream, if desired
Spray 3 to 4 quart slow clooker with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix apples and cinnamon to coat. Place in slow cooker. In medium bowl, mix oats, brown sugar, flour and butter with pastry blender or fork until crumbly. Stir in pecans and toffee bits. Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over apoples. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 4 to 6 hours. Serve apple crisp with ice cream.
