Slow Cooker Apple Pear Crisp

Slow Cooker Apple Pear Crisp – Amazingly delicious, all made in the slow cooker.  A great way to use fresh picked apples.

Fall is here and that means apple picking time.  We love going to the local apple orchards. It’s certainly a fun way to spend an afternoon and you get to take delicious fresh apples home.

They are great for snacking on and for baking.  Pies, crisps, crumbles, so many delicious cooked apple desserts!! Of course this  Slow Cooker Apple Pear Crisp is always a winner.

First it’s made in the slow cooker so the apples and pears cook perfectly and the topping crisps up just right. 

This is perfect comfort food and great for family gatherings, potlucks or any time you need a quick dessert.

We love it with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.  We love the mix of apples and pears in the crisp. It really gives it a nice flavor. The pears really make it super yummy! 

Add the cinnamon and sugar together. Sprinkle a small amount to cover the bottom of the slow cooker.

Next, add the sliced apples and pears. Use the remaining cinnamon sugar mix to cover the apples and pears.

In a bowl, combine together flour, brown sugar, and oats.  Mix thoroughly. 

Once completely mixed, add the stick of butter.  Using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the mixture.  It should be coarse crumbles.

Using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the mixture. It should be coarse crumbles. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the top of the fruit. 

Add a layer of paper towels over the top of the slow cooker and put the lid on.

The paper towels will absorb the extra moisture to help your crust. Set the slow cooker for low and 2 hour cook time. Once done remove the paper towels, lid and serve!
