Making homemade slow cooker spiced apple cider is the best! I always go through so much during the fall whether I am baking with it or even just drinking a glass so making it at home means I can make as much as I want and have a constant supply of it all of the time! I love the fact you can just let it go in the slow cooker with only having to intervene once just to mash the apples a bit.  It is so simple to make!

So far, I have used this apple cider to make the Slow Cooker Apple Pie Oatmeal and I am planning on using it in Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter and Baked Apple Cider Donuts! Basically, I am rolling in fall recipes right now, that all I have been eating recently!

I highly suggest serving it hot with a bit of homemade vanilla whipped cream, a pinch of cinnamon, and a salted caramel drizzle on top!

Tips for slow cooker spiced apple cider recipe

  • Add some fresh cranberries in and it’s perfect to serve at a holiday party or Thanksgiving!
  • Make sure you have a big enough crock pot! I used a 5 quart and it barely fit so anything smaller will be way to small!
  • Use cinnamon sticks if you can, this the perfect recipe to pull them out and use them in!
