Our Top Slow-Cooker Recipes for Fall

Old-fashioned apple cake is such a nice sweet to have around; make it on a Sunday and you'll have a not-too-heavy, just-indulgent-enough dessert to eat all week (that is, if it lasts that long). We love this creative recipe from the new cook book, Slow Cooker Desserts, by Roxanne Wyss and Kathy Moore. You actually bake the cake in a springform pan set in the cooker, so you get a perfectly round cake but can actually leave the house while it bakes.
