Apple Oatmeal Pudding in the Crock Pot

This is comfort food at its best for me, and it is relatively healthy! This tastes like an apple pie with the crumb topping mixed in! This is a slight adaptation of a recipe in "Fix It and Forget it Lightly" and was credited to Sue Hamilton in Minooka, IL. This is very rich and we liked it topped with fat free cool-whip. The original recipe calls for regular white flour, I just prefer to use whole wheat pastry flour.

• Ready In: 4 hrs 20 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 3  cups apples, peeled and diced

1. Spray your slow cooker with cooking spray.
2. Add the cut up apples.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients.

5. It will look like it could not possibly be enough liquid when you first start mixing. But stick with it, it will work!
6. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.
