How to Make Apple Butter Pork Chops Ala Crock Pot

  1. In your crock-pot, combine 1/2 cup apple butter, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1 tablespoon tapioca starch.
  2. Peel and thinly slice 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji). Add them to the crock-pot.
  3. Place 4-6 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick) on top of the apples.
  4. Spoon the apple butter mixture evenly over the pork chops and apples.
  5. Cook on low for 5-6 hours, or on high for 3-3.5 hours, or until the pork chops are tender and easily pull apart with a fork.
  6. Serve the pork chops over couscous or rice. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
