I didn't think this was so great. Getting the core out was kind of a challange. I used granny smith apples, walnuts, peanuts, and splenda. I would try a different kind of apple. Too tart!!! I planned on having them in the crockpot for 4 hrs on low but they turned too mush after two hours and split. Topped them with ice cream.

I was going to use granny smith apples only to find that someone had eaten them so all I had was pink lady and should have only cooked them for 2 hours for at 2 1/2 they were slightly overcooked and the skin had split but were still very delicious served with a dollop of cream. I used walnuts (finally crushed) for my nuts but tripled the mix for 3 large apples and used Natvia for the sugar. Thank you weekend cooker for another great apple crock pot recipe, made for Everyday A Holiday tag game.
