Apple Pie Coffee Cake in the Slow Cooker

I don't know about you , but I don't think I have ever had anything bad that was made in a slow ccoker. Otherwise known as a crock pot

Ingredients:


Apple Mixture:

1 can (20 oz) apple pie filling, apple slices broken up somewhat

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

3 tablespoons brown sugar

.

Cake Batter:

2 small yellow cake mixes (Jiffy - 9-ounce each)

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup sour cream (light)

3 tablespoons softened butter or margarine

1/2 cup evaporated milk

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon butter or margarine for greasing slow cooker

Preparation:

Combine ingredients for apple mixture in a small bowl. Combine batter ingredients; mix well. Generouslly butter the sides and bottom of a 3 1/2 quart slow cooker/Crock Pot. Spread about half the apple mixture in the bottom of the pot. Spoon 1/2 the batter over the apple mixture. Spoon the remaining apple mixture over the batter, then cover with remaining batter. Cover and cook on high for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Turn heat off, leave cover ajar slightly, and cool for about 15 minutes. Invert on a plate, retrieving any apples left in the bottom of the pot and placing on top of the cake. Makes a cake about 7 inches in diameter and 3 1/2-inches high.
