Ingredients
-
6 Red Prince or firm McIntosh apples
-
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
-
1-1/2 cups rolled oats
-
3 tablespoons chopped pecans, optional
-
6 tablespoons brown sugar
-
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
-
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
-
Vanilla ice cream
Directions
- Using a melon baller or a small spoon, remove the cores of the apples by scooping a well into middle about 3/4 of the way down. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon onto the apples and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, remaining cinnamon, butter, and salt and mix well. Nestle the apples into a slow cooker and stuff about 1/4 cup of the mixture into each of the apple wells.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and set it to high for 1-1/2 - 2 hours or until the apples are soft.
- Allow the apples to cool slightly then serve with vanilla ice cream.
