  • 1 slow cooker, 6 quart or larger

Ingredients

  • 8 large Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, and sliced; any tart apple works
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ cup unsalted butter sliced into small pieces

Instructions

  • Place apples in slow cooker. Place the prepared apple slices in the slow cooker.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To freeze, cool completely and transfer to a freezer bag or container for up to 3 months. Apples will be softer once thawed. This recipe doubles or triples easily - use a larger slow cooker and add 30 minutes to an hour for larger batches.
