This is a GREAT crock pot dessert. Even if you think you don't like cranberries - try it. You won't regret it. I am not a big cranberry fan. I pass by on the cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I just have never really liked it. I saw this recipe in my Southern Living: Slow-Cooker Cookbook
Cranberry-Apple Cobbler (in the Crock Pot)
Ingredients:
5 apples, peeled & sliced (I used Gala, the recipe called for Granny Smith)
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (I just poured in the whole bag you can find in the fruit section - I think it's a 16 ounce bag)
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions:
Combine first 5 ingredients (apples, cranberries, brown sugar, tsp vanilla & cinnamon) in a greased 5-quart crock pot. Whisk together cornstarch and 1/4 cup water until smooth and add to crock pot stirring well. Cover and cook on high 1 1/2 hours.
When that time is almost up beat butter in a medium bowl until creamy. Add sugar beating well. Add milk, vanilla and egg, beating until blended. Stir in flour, baking powder & salt.
Stir apple mixture. Drop flour mixture about a tablespoon at a time over top of the apple mixture evenly. Cover and turn crock pot to low and cook another 2 1/2 hours (or leave on high another 1 1/2 hours). Serve warm with ice cream. Will serve about 8 people.
It may not be real pretty... but it sure is good!!
I like anything I can put in a crockpot haha. This looks like such a delicious fall dessert :)
