This Slow Cooker Apple Cobbler is made from fresh apples and it is a super easy fall dessert. Only a handful of ingredients are required. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
I love making all kinds of foods in my crock pot, even desserts. This Crock Pot Pecan Pie is a big favorite!
During the summer you’ll find me making Slow Cooker Lemon Cake, but come fall it’s all about the apples.
Using a crock pot is a super convenient way to make a dessert. There’s more leeway in cooking time, so not much of a risk of burning anything.
Type Of Apples To Use
I use a mixture of Granny Smith and either Honey Crisp or Gala. I like the tartness of Granny Smith combined with a sweeter apple. You can use all one of the other if you wish.
How To Make Slow Cooker Apple Cobbler
This recipe is basically an apple dump cake recipe. The recipe starts with 6 cups of peeled and sliced fresh apples. The apples get tossed with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in the crock pot. No mixing bowl needed. Everything is done in the slow cooker for easy clean-up.
A box of yellow cake mix (no need to add anything to it) gets sprinkled on top of the apples, along with a little more cinnamon.
Finally, 1 stick of melted butter is drizzled on top. The butter and the liquid that comes out of the apples as they cook, is all the liquid needed to form the dry cake mix into a delicious cobbler topping. Easy Peeazy.

A few tweaks/comments having now made this twice. Walmart Grocery sells peeled, sliced apples in a big container which is about 6 cups of apples. This is life-changing! 🙂 To make this in my 7qt, large crockpot, I did 1.5 times the recipe as written. The recipe says to pour the cake mix, then drizzle the butter, but I found doing it that way left some of the cake mix in powder form. So I melted the butter and mixed the cake mix with it to form a crumble, then sprinkled it over the top. This worked perfectly. I also just sprinkled cinnamon over the apples and over the top, using WAY more than the recipe calls for. Finally, I added just a smidge of water to the apples- like less than 1/4c, but I felt it needed just a little liquid.
I just made this recipe. Turned out zoo food. Some of the brown sugar carmelized on the bottom of the pot and made it even better!
This is the second time I’ve made it and both times it turned out perfect! My family loves this cobbler and it makes the house smell delicious while it’s cooking.
I took this out of the crockpot after 3 1/2 hrs because it was raw.
I put it in the oven and it still mushy. What can i do now?
My second time making this. How much is one serving size? Please say the entire crockpot 😊
I am currently making this right now! So very excited!
Confused. 1/4 tsp of Allspice or Nutmeg?
Made this for the family and it is ah-mazing. Super simple and so delicious.
So happy you enjoyed it!
Made this today. Recipe was super easy and cobbler turned out just like the picture. Not only was it super easy, but it was delicious too. This is definitely being added to my list of recipes to make again, thanks for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed it Colleen!
Did u peel the apples?
I halved the recipe and have cooked it 3 hours so far. The topping is completely raw and barely warm. I find every slow cooker recipe has half the cooking time that mine takes. I am learning it’s important to adjust recipes based on how your equipment performs.
That is very true Audrey. Every crock pot seems to cook very differently.
