Ingredients
Scale
- 6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Apples
- Slice the Apples:
- Peel, core, and slice the apples into evenly sized wedges or slices for uniform cooking.
- Coat the Apples:
- In a large bowl, combine the apple slices with brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
- Toss the apples gently until they are well-coated in the sugar and spice mixture.
Step 2: Transfer to the Slow Cooker
- Prepare the Slow Cooker:
- Lightly grease the slow cooker with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
- Add the Apples:
- Pour the coated apples into the slow cooker, spreading them evenly to create a single layer if possible.
Step 3: Cook the Apples
- Set the Temperature:
- Cover the slow cooker and set it to low.
- Cook:
- Let the apples cook for 4 to 6 hours, stirring occasionally if possible. The apples should be tender but not mushy, with a thickened cinnamon glaze coating them.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Serve Warm:
- Spoon the fried apples onto plates or into bowls, making sure to drizzle the cinnamon glaze from the slow cooker over the top.
- Optional Toppings:
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a decadent dessert.
