Easy Crockpot Apple Cider

Inside: An easy crockpot apple cider recipe made with just 5 ingredients.

What better time than autumn to enjoy a nice hot apple cider?

We are now well into autumn, and there is a definite chill in the air. After a long day, I find there is nothing better than curling up with a comfy blanket and a nice warm glass of apple cider.

Growing up, hot apple cider was always a Fall staple at our house. In fact, I cannot think back to a Thanksgiving where my mother didn’t make hot apple cider.

There is something about that nice warm mug of apple cider that is very soothing. Plus, I was always known to chew on my cinnamon stick after it had soaked up all the apple-cidery goodness.

Crockpot Apple Cider

Although my mother made her apple cider on the stovetop, I am more of a slow cooker gal myself.

Making cider in the slow cooker is super simple, and it comes out amazing.

As an added bonus, it fills the house with a lovely cinnamon scent that just screams autumn.

Crockpot apple cider is one of my favorite Fall apple recipes. I like to make it for Thanksgiving (everyone loves it!) or as a treat on any chilly autumn or winter night.
