This makes a unique apple crisp with the butterscotch pudding mix. Next time, I will decrease the cooking time by one hour as my crockpot burnt it a tad.

This apple crisp was very tasty! I loved the addition of the butterscotch pudding. The apples were perfectly tender and the topping was very flavorful with cinnamon.

Very easy and very good! Love having the ease of a crockpot dessert and the house smelled yummy! Served with ice cream but I am sure it would be good plain or with whipped topping :-)

We love this recipe! I work afternoons so I usually make dinner before I leave, this is a great way for my family to have dessert too. I doubled the topping and served with ice cream. Everyone loved it.
