Apple pie, apple butter, applesauce, Apple computer... anything apple is good in my book! Last month I pinned this recipe for Vegan Slow Cooker Apple Pie Cake and was eager to give it a try. I had never made a cake in the crock pot before, but it seemed easy enough! (I was right. SO EASY.)I decided to make it for a Frock Swap party a few weeks ago and it was a big hit! No leftovers! Nick was pretty bummed that he didn't get to try any, so I decided to make it again (uhh, actually 3 times now...) and it's gone over pretty well each time. Trust me, you're gonna want to make this one too.Here's what you need! (Recipe adapted from Vegan in the Freezer)- 4 Granny Smith apples- 1/4 cup coconut sugar- 1/2 tbsp. cinnamon- 1/2 cup vegan butter (we use Earth Balance)- 1 box Duncan Hines yellow cake mix- Crock pot (I used a 5 qt. size)The ingredients above are all vegan-friendly, however, you could easily substitute the sugar, butter, and cake mix for non-vegan versions.Here's what you do!- Peel and slice apples and place directly in the crock pot.- In a small bowl, mix together cinnamon and sugar. Pour on top of the apples and stir to coat the apples evenly.- Measure out your butter and melt it in the microwave.- In a large bowl, combine dry cake mix and melted butter. Stir well. The mixture should have a crumbly, doughy consistency.- Sprinkle half of the cake mix into the apples and stir to combine.- Sprinkle the rest of the cake mix on top of the apples but do NOT mix in.- Cover and cook on low for 3 hours.- Serve warm!For added goodness, we've been eating this with some vanilla soy ice cream... DROOL. SO GOOD. Think you'll make it? Be sure to let us know if you do!Sarah & Nick
