Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Apples by rinsing and optionally peeling them. Slice into even segments, about 1-inch thick, and place in the slow cooker.
  2. Add Lemon Juice over the sliced apples to brighten flavors and prevent browning.
  3. Sprinkle cornstarch, sugar, and chosen spices over the apples and toss gently to coat.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and set to cook on high for 1.5 to 2 hours.
  5. Check the apples for doneness after 1.5 hours; they should be tender but not mushy.
