Apple Coconut Crisp.

To make a delightful Apple-Coconut Crisp, start by peeling and coarsely slicing four large Granny Smith apples, then combine them with sweetened flaked coconut, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a 1 1/2-quart baking dish that fits in your slow cooker. Drizzle the mixture with butterscotch or caramel ice cream topping. This blend of ingredients creates a sweet and tangy base, enhanced by the rich flavor of the coconut and the spices.

Next, prepare the topping by combining additional flour, quick rolled oats, and cold butter or margarine in a small bowl. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend the mixture until it forms coarse crumbs. Sprinkle this topping over the apple mixture, ensuring an even distribution. This crunchy topping will provide a delightful contrast to the tender apples once cooked.

Cover the baking dish and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown. Serve the Apple-Coconut Crisp warm, either on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped topping. This comforting dessert is perfect for any occasion, offering a satisfying blend of flavors and textures.
