I had a few Cortland apples lying around that I intended to make apple crisp with but them I went on Pinterest and everything changed.
I saw that someone had pinned this recipe for Crock-Pot Baked Apples and had to try it. Plus, I had all the ingredients in my pantry…bonus!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons trans-fat free margarine (I used unsalted butter)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
6 Gala or Macintosh apples, cored (I used 4 large Cortlands which is all I could fit in my Crock Pot)
1/2 cup apple juice or apple cider
2 tablespoons orange liquor (optional)
Method:
Preheat your Crock-Pot on high heat and preset it for 3 hours. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, walnuts, butter and cinnamon. Fill the apples with the filling and place them into the Crock-Pot. Pour in the apple juice or cider and the liquor, if using. Cover and cook 2 1/2 – 3 hours until the apples are soft and start to collapse.
Thanks to Jennifer Iserloh at Skinny Chef for originally posting this recipe.

Baked apples are one of my favorite things about fall/winter. I've never tried making them in the crock pot though, I'll have to give it a go sometime soon!
Looks delicious! We have so many apples.
baked apples are the best! i really need to get myself a crock pot!!
Yes, you certainly should. Or at least borrow someone's so you can see how you like it. I plan on a lot of Crock-Pot recipes this winter. Next recipe will be tacos!
It was very good and even Gabriella liked it!
I love that this uses the crockpot! My two boys love anything with apples, thanks for the recipe
