Simple Apple Crumble Slow Cooker Recipe

Happy Halloween everyone! However if you are all pumpkined out then try this yummy pudding with in season apples

Simple Apple Crumble Slow Cooker Recipe – Serves 4

The apples in this crumble will be very soft when dished up, so it will be as described – a bit of a crumble – just top with some custard for a tasty and warming pud!

You will need:

1 x Standard Slow Cooker

125grams/4oz of Plain Flour (I use wholemeal)

125grams/4oz of Butter (or you could use solid baking margarine for a more frugal alternative)

125grams/4oz of Light Soft Brown Sugar

75grams/3oz of Rolled Oats (I use Scottish)

3 x Large Cooking Apples (or 6 x Eating Apples)

1 x Large spoonful of Golden Syrup (or any other sweet syrup you have to hand such as Maple?  I haven’t tried it yet but bet it’s nice…)

Instructions:

1. Sift plain flour into a large bowl and add cut up small pieces of the butter (this will be easier if the butter has been softened slightly – or just left out of the fridge for a while before using)

2. Rub the flour and butter together until all combined

3. Rub in oats and sugar and put bowl to one side

4. Peel and core the apples and cut large apples into 8 pieces (quarter first then half again), or smaller apples into quarters.

5. Place the apples in the bottom of the slow cooker, as evenly as possible

6. Pour on a large spoonful of syrup evenly over apples (to your taste)

7. Spread the sticky crumble mixture on top evenly

8. Turn heat setting to low and leave for 4 hours, then turn to warm until ready to eat.

Serve with Fresh Custard or Vanilla Ice-Cream (I like it with Fresh Cold Custard!)

*As always, if you require bigger portions or are cooking for a larger family then double quantities and use a large slow cooker.

Simple Chocolate Peanut Butter and Bread Pudding Slow Cooker Recipe

Leave a reply

If you are a chocolate peanut butter fan, you are going to love this easy slow cooker recipe! Perfect on a chilly evening after a leisurely family supper…

Simple Chocolate Peanut Butter and Bread Pudding Slow Cooker Recipe – Serves 4 (medium portions) or 2 Adults and 2 Children

This is a fantastic recipe for the kids to have a go at.  They can do much of the preparation, with some assistance, and get to enjoy the results of their handy work later in the day!

You will need:

6 Slices of White Bread – crusts removed and preferably slightly stale (if you have it)

2 x Eggs (I use free range)

3/4 Pint of Milk (I use semi-skimmed)

2 x Tablespoons of Caster Sugar

Chocolate Peanut Butter Spread (I use Nutella)

Instructions:

1. Spread the bread with the chocolate peanut butter and cut each crustless slice into 4 triangles (Top Tip – Remove crusts before spreading else it can get very messy!)

2. Layer the bread in the slow cooker as evenly as possible.

3. Whisk the eggs, milk and sugar together and pour over the bread – ensure mixture covers the bread by pressing down the bread if required.

4. Place lid on slow cooker and, turn heat setting to low and leave for 8 hours

5. Approx. 15-30 minutes before serving take lid of so excess moisture evaporates.  As the pudding stands it will become more solid and easier to serve so feel free to turn setting to warm and leave a little longer.

Serve with fresh cold custard or vanilla ice cream

As always, if you require bigger portions or are cooking for a larger family then double quantities and use a large slow cooker.
