help! somewhere on TV this week I saw someone making a crockpot dish with
apples.. I thought it was kind of like a apple pie - whatever the topping
mix was they placed 1/3 of it on the bottom, tapped it down than the
apples, which were premixed with some sugar and spices (like
pie/crumble/cobbler) then the remainder of the topping mix was put on top.

I have looked at all the apple crockpot recipes I could find on the web,
searched food TV since that may be where I saw it. Can not find it..
Oh...and it uses oats- quick cook oats I believe.. or am I crazy and
dreamed I saw this recipe...!

No idea, as I didn't see it, but perhaps you saw it on an infomercial for a
crock pot? Or maybe....QVC or one of the other home shopping channels?

They demo the appliances on those channels by showing how versatile they
are. Some of the recipes look good, too!!!!

Perhaps that would explain why you couldn't find it on FoodTv's website???
Just a thought. Try searching QVC and HSN's websites and see if it's there.
Never know!!!
Good luck!

Hey Laura,
Sounds like it could be a modified apple crisp. Put some toppping on
the bottom, and it'll turn gooey. Sounds pretty good, actually.
For topping like that, you can use a variety of things--(+brown sugar,
butter, flour): oats, nuts, grape-nuts, granola, Rice Krispies, etc.

Let us know if you try it.
Cheers!
Jeff

Actually this sounds similar - it has the oats at least could not find
anything on any of the recipe sites that even had apple and oats in it !
Probably with the bottom of the pot oiled I could do it.
