  Categories: Cheesecakes, Crockpot
       Yield: 6 servings
  
       1 c  All-purpose flour; sift
   1 1/2 ts Baking powder
     1/2 tb Salt
       1 tb Sugar
     1/4 c  Shortening
       1    Egg; slightly beaten
     1/4 c  Milk
       4 c  Tart apples; slice, peel,
            Core
     1/2 tb Cinnamon
     1/4 tb Nutmeg
       2 tb Granulated sugar
     1/2 c  Apricot jam
       2 tb Shortening; melt
  
       In a medium-large bowl, sift together the flour, baking
   powder, salt, and 1 tb granulated sugar. With two knives,
   cut the shortening into the flour until mixture is mealy.
   Make a well in the center and drop in the egg and milk.
   Stir in the flour mixture to form smooth batter, turn into
   greased 2-quart mold. Arrange the apples in rows on top,
   pushing them halfway into the dough. In a small bowl, mix
   the cinnamon, nutmeg and 2 tablespoons sugar. Sprinkle over
   the apples and  dot with apricot jam. Drizzle butter over
   all. Place in the slow cooker and cover loosely with a
   plate.  Cover the cooker, but prop the lid open a fraction
   with a toothpick or a twist of foil to let excess steam
   escape. Cook on High for 3 to 4 hours.
