I love the ease of crock pot cooking & this is a recipe given to me by susiequsie from The Best Slow Cooker Cookbook Ever . I eliminated cinnamon from the original recipe, changed the ingredient amounts to suit preparing 8 apples & added a little something extra to kick it up a notch . The apples can be served (hot or cold) as a side dish with a pork meal or a dessert with vanilla ice cream ... & be sure to use the yummy apple-flavored red sauce you'll get. Ingredients:
8 medium apples |
1/3 cup sugar |
1/4 cup raisins |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/4 cup red cinnamon candies |
1/2 cup water |
Directions:
1. Core apples at the stem end, taking care to make a wide opening & not go completely through the bottom. Then peel skin down 1 in from the top.
2. Mix sugar, raisins & cinnamon red hots.
3. Stuff apples tightly with the mixture (mounding at the opening as there will be ample stuffing mix) & dot each opening with butter.
4. Pour water into crock pot, add any leftover stuffing mixture to the water & add apples.
5. Cover & cook on low 7-8 hrs, medium for 6 hrs or high for 3-4 hours (NOTE: Cooking time may vary & I suggest fork testing the apples 1 hr ahead of the time you expect them to be finished).
