Slow Cooker Autumn’s Best Apple Crisp

This Slow Cooker Autumn’s Best Apple Crisp is one of my husband’s all time favorite desserts.

After a hospital visit and learning that my husband could no longer eat nuts, I had to make some changes to our original recipe to accommodate him.

We actually like this even better!

I wanted a crunch on the top, so instead of nuts, I use Grapenut Cereal Nuggets. It gives nice texture to the dessert, while at the same time, adding some fiber.
