How To Make Slow Cooker Apple And Blueberry Pie
- Prepare the slow cooker: Lightly oil the slow cooker. In a bowl, combine the apples with the mixed spice, then evenly layer them in the slow cooker.
- Mix 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, then mix until well combined.
- Add flour and blueberries: Gently fold in the sifted flour, then fold in the blueberries.
- Cook the pie: Pour the batter over the apples in the slow cooker to cover them. Cook on high for 2½ hours.
- Finish the pie: Turn off the slow cooker and set the pie aside for 30 minutes before carefully removing it.
- Serve: Serve the pie with mascarpone on top.
Recipe Tips
- Slice the apples thinly: Thin slices help the apples cook evenly and create a tender texture throughout the pie.
- Don’t overmix the batter: Gently fold in the flour and blueberries to avoid a dense texture.
- Check the pie at 2 hours: Slow cookers vary, so check the pie after 2 hours to ensure it’s not overcooked.
- Let it rest before serving: Allow the pie to rest for 30 minutes before removing it from the slow cooker for better texture.
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries: Both work well, but make sure if using frozen, they are not thawed to prevent excess liquid.
