- Prepare apples: Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
- Toss apples with lemon juice, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch in a large bowl until well coated.
- Transfer mixture to a greased slow cooker. Dot the top with butter pieces and drizzle with vanilla.
- Cook on LOW for 3–4 hours or until apples are tender and syrupy, stirring once halfway through.
- Serve warm as a dessert, side, or topping.
Tips:
- For a thicker sauce, remove the lid for the last 20–30 minutes.
- Add chopped pecans or raisins for extra texture.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days—great reheated!
