Description

Apple Dump Cake is a simple, comforting dessert that combines the warmth of spiced apple pie filling with the ease of a dry cake mix and butter. With only three main ingredients, it creates a deliciously moist and tender cake without the fuss of multiple steps, making it a perfect quick treat to bake for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 Cans (21 oz each) Apple Pie Filling
  • 1 Box Spice Cake Mix (dry)
  • 1 Cup (2 sticks) Butter, sliced


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the cake.
  2. Prepare Pan: Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent the cake from sticking and to make clean-up easier.
  3. Add Apple Pie Filling: Pour both cans of apple pie filling evenly into the greased baking dish, spreading it out smoothly.
  4. Sprinkle Cake Mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry spice cake mix over the apple pie filling, covering the surface completely.
  5. Add Butter: Slice the cold butter and distribute the slices evenly on top of the cake mix. This will melt during baking to create a moist, rich crust.
  6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake at 350°F for 1 hour until golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
  7. Cool Slightly: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly for about 10 minutes to set before serving.
  8. Serve: Serve the Apple Dump Cake warm, optionally topping with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delightful dessert experience.
