I don’t make many desserts in my slow cooker, but when I do, there’s a good chance that dessert is going to be Crock Pot Apple Cobbler. My family loves an apple dessert, and I love dishes that tell me to toss things in my slow cooker and give it a stir. This Crock Pot Apple Cobbler recipe makes everyone happy!
A 6 quart slow cooker would be great for this recipe. My two favorites are the 6 Quart Hamilton Beach Set ‘n Forget Programmable Slow Cooker and 6.5-Quart Crock-Pot Programmable Touchscreen Slow Cooker. (affiliate links)

You have melted butter as an ingredient at the beginning of article, but then the recipe says to cut in chunks of butter. Which is it please?
I made this recipe today which happens to be a Thursday lol. It’s delicious!!!! I had it with heavy cream (the British way) & my husband had it with vanilla ice cream. The beginning part of the recipe says you need melted butter but the recipe itself calls for it to be cut in to the flour (see previous comment). After reading through it completely it became obvious the melted butter is not correct. However, someone who is new to baking may not know this.
About how many apples is 6 cups? Thanks!
