Using Apples & Applesauce

Use the apple that you prefer; I used gala apples. It really doesn’t matter what type of apple you use whether it be a sweet apple like gala or red delicious or a bitter apple like granny smith. I never bother to take the skin off my apples when cooking them in the slow cooker. You can if you want to but I find that it’s not necessary because the slow cooker cooks the apples to the point that the skin is very soft. I used 100% all-natural unsweetened applesauce but the type of applesauce you want to use is up to you.

Tips For A Successful Bread Pudding

There are a few things you need to do to make this bread pudding a good one:

• Generously grease the slow cooker with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. If you don’t, this is definitely a recipe that will stick to the slow cooker when you go to take it out.
• Let the bread pudding cool before removing it from the slow cooker. This too will help it from sticking to the sides. If you use parchment paper, you don’t have to worry about this step, you can just pull the bread pudding out.
• This isn’t a recipe you can leave on the warm setting too long because it will burn the bottom of the bread pudding. When it’s done cooking, it’s best to turn the slow cooker off and let it cool.
• Drizzle some more honey on top of the bread pudding before serving.

The sliced apple you see on top of the bread pudding in my pictures is purely cosmetic. If you want to add it, great. If not, that’s okay too! I used my 3.5 quart slow cooker for this recipe.  Serving a larger crowd? Double the recipe and use a 6-quart.
