Apple Crisp

Crockpots aren't just for pork roasts anymore.  Dust off your slow cooker, it's apple crisp time!



Ingredients:
6 cups apples, cored and sliced thin
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup (one stick) butter
1 tablespoon flour
2 cups plain bread crumbs
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar
1 lemon for juice and zest

Directions:
1.  In a large bowl, combine apple slices, lemon juice and zest.  Add white sugar, flour and cinnamon, stir until well coated.
2.  In another bowl, combine brown sugar and bread crumbs.  Add melted butter and stir until well combined.
3.  Cover bottom of the crockpot with some of the bread crumb mixture (about a fourth of the mixture).  Add a layer of apples (about a third of the mixture).  Continue layering bread crumbs and apples, and finish off with a layer of the bread crumbs. 
4.  Cook on High for 3 hours or until bubbly.

Want to make it even more awesome?  Serve with ice cream.  Or, instead of just apples, use 3 cups apples and 3 cups sliced peaches.  Enjoy!
