Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 241kcal
Ingredients
- 6 medium apples I used Fuji
- 4 fuyu persimmons*
- Juice of one lemon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup water
Instructions
- Peel, core and thinly slice the apples and persimmons.
- Place them in your crockpot and add in the lemon juice, vanilla extract and water. Cover your crockpot and set the temp to high. Let everything cook for 3-6 hours** (depending on the strength of your crockpot).
- Once the cooking time is up, mash the fruit with a potato masher until your desired consistency.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
*If you don't have fuyu persimmons available nearby, you can just use two more apples.
**I say 3-6 hours, because the original recipe says 4-6 hours on high, but my crockpot is so powerful it only takes 3!
