Apple-Pecan Crisp

Prep: 15 min., Cook: 3 hrs. Be sure to check your apples at 2 hours, as overcooking may make them mushy.


5 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold butter
3/4 cup chopped toasted pecans
Vanilla ice cream

Place apples in a lightly greased 6-quart slow cooker; drizzle with lemon juice, and toss to coat.

Combine flour and next 3 ingredients in a medium bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or two forks until mixture resembles coarse meal; sprinkle over apples.

Cover and cook on HIGH 3 hours or until apples are tender. Sprinkle with pecans. Serve warm with ice cream.
Yield: Makes 6 servings
