How To Make Slow Cooker Apple And Blueberry Pie

  1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Lightly grease the slow cooker.
  2. Layer the Apples: In a bowl, combine the apples with the mixed spice, then evenly layer them in the slow cooker.
  3. Make the Batter: Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs and coconut sugar until pale and thick. Add the melted coconut oil, agave syrup (or honey), and vanilla seeds, mixing until well combined.
  4. Fold in the Flour and Blueberries: Gently fold in the sifted flour, followed by the blueberries.
  5. Cook the Pie: Pour the batter over the apples, covering them evenly. Cook on high for 2½ hours.
  6. Cool and Serve: Turn off the slow cooker and let the pie set for 30 minutes before removing it. Serve with a dollop of mascarpone.

Recipe Tips

  • Slice the Apples Thinly: The thinner you slice the apples, the better they will cook down into a soft, sweet layer under the batter.
  • Use Fresh Blueberries: Fresh blueberries give the pie a burst of flavor. If you use frozen, make sure they’re not too icy to prevent the batter from becoming too wet.
  • Check Cooking Time: Every slow cooker is different, so check the pie after 2 hours to make sure it’s cooked through. It should be golden and firm on top.
  • Let the Pie Rest: Allow the pie to rest for 30 minutes after cooking. This helps it set and makes it easier to serve.
  • Grease the Slow Cooker Well: Make sure to grease the slow cooker properly so the pie doesn’t stick. This will help you get a clean, easy serving.

Recipe FAQs and Variations

Can I use other types of apples?

Yes, you can use other tart apples like Braeburn or Pink Lady. Just make sure they hold their shape when cooking.

Can I substitute coconut sugar?

You can substitute coconut sugar with brown sugar or maple sugar if needed, but the flavor may vary slightly.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the pie and refrigerate it after cooking. Reheat it gently in the slow cooker or microwave before serving.

Can I add other fruits?

Yes, you can mix in other fruits like raspberries or blackberries for a different flavor combination.

Can I make this recipe without a slow cooker?

If you don’t have a slow cooker, you can bake this pie in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden.
