Apple season is here, apple season is here!!!! It is decided, Autumn is my new favorite season. I have been drooling over apple, pumpkin, caramel, and soup recipes all week long.

Serves about 8 Recipe

Ingredients

6 cups chopped apples
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup AP flour
1 tablespoon corn starch
2 tablespoons apple pie spice
1 tablespoon apple butter
4 1/2 tablespoons regular butter
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Dash of salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Ice cream for garnish

Directions

Chop up your apples and place them in a crock pot. Add in the apple butter and lemon juice, then stir together. In a small bowl, mix the corn starch, 1 tablespoon of apple pie spice, and 1/4 cup white sugar. Pour over the apples and mix well. Now add in the walnuts and stir together.

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, last tablespoon of apple pie spice, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture is coarse and crumbly. Sprinkle the mixture over the apples.

Let the crisp cook for 4 hours on low or until the apples are nice and tender. Top with ice cream and enjoy!

My apples of choice: Granny Smith & Honey Crisp. Tart and sweet.

Chop the apples up into uniform pieces and place in the bottom of the crock pot.

Apple Butter is one of my favorite things, it’s what sold me on making this recipe.

Spread the apple butter and lemon juice in and stir to coat.

Mix together the cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of apple pie spice, and white sugar. I jumped the gun and put both tablespoons of apple pie spice in this step…it still turned out delicious!
