Last week I shared a microwave apple crisp and mentioned my love of fall and apples. Today I am sharing another simple apple crisp recipe with you. It is for a crock pot apple crisp.
I am glad my family loves apples and apple crisps as much as I do because we have been eating a lot of them lately! They are so good this time of year.
If you want to make this apple crisp a little better, pour a little caramel sauce on top before you serve it. It takes it to a whole new level of deliciousness!

Sounds good and easy, but my one question…Does it have a crispy topping, or is it only soft/dry? I love crispy/crunchy! 🙂
No it doesn’t get as crispy as it does in the oven. It is much softer in the crock pot. So if you love crispy crunchy you might not like a crock pot crisp as well.
