I couldn’t wait to try this Crock Pot Cinnamon Swirl Spoon Cake that I adapted from Crock Pot’s 365 Days of Crock Pot Recipes. While making this you are going to want just eat the batter, and since there are no eggs in the batter, you technically could. However, just wait. I promise it will be worth it!

Ingredients for Crock Pot Cinnamon Swirl Spoon Cake

• 20 oz cinnamon swirl crumb cake mix (I used this one.)
• 1 cup sour cream
• 4 serving instant French vanilla pudding mix
• 1 cup water
• 3/4 cup oil
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1-2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon flour

How to Make a Cinnamon Swirl Spoon Cake in a Crock Pot

1. Mix together your cake mix (without the swirl packet), sour cream, pudding mix, water and oil until well blended.
2. Spoon batter (it will be thick) into a slightly greased 6-quart crock pot (I used Sir Hamilton, my Hamilton Beach Programmable Insulated Slow Cooker)
3. Sprinkle reserved swirl packet on top of your batter
4. Using a spatula, swirl in the packet
5. Put 2-4 paper towels under the lid of your crock pot, cover and cook on high for 1 1/2-2 hours
6. About 30 minutes before your cake is done, mix together your brown sugar, cinnamon and flour and sprinkle on top
7. Cook the remaining 30 minutes uncovered

Crock Pot Cinnamon Swirl Spoon Cake Notes

• While this batter would fit in a 4-quart crock pot, use a 6-quart crock pot. I tried it in a 4-quart and the sides burnt before the center was done since this is such a thick batter.
• You can decide how much cinnamon you want in the topping. We love cinnamon, so we like it more on the 2 teaspoon side, but it is completely up to you.
• The paper towels under the lid keep the condensation that gathers on the lid from dripping down on your cake.
• After you swirl in the swirl packet, your cake is going to look all crazy. Don’t worry. That is normal, and the end product is delicious!
• As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
• All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
