Apple crisp is an easy, sort of healthy dessert. Cooking in a slow cooker makes it even easier.

This recipe is modified from https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/177053/slow-cooker-apple-crisp/.

Topping:
1/4 cup flour or all purpose gluten free flour
1/4 cup flaxseed
3/4 cup oatmeal
1/4 cup coconut sugar
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
4 tbs butter or ghee, cut into pieces

Filling:
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 tbs cornstarch
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
6 cups apples – peeled, cored and chopped
2 tbs lemon juice

Mix the flour, flaxseed, oatmeal, 1/4 cup coconut sugar, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Combine butter with the flour mixture until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.

Mix together 1/4 cup coconut sugar, cornstarch, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Place the apples in a slow cooker. Stir in the cornstarch mixture. Toss with lemon juice. Sprinkle the topping on top. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours, until apples are tender. Partially uncover the slow cooker to allow the topping to harden, about 1 hour.
