Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans (21 oz each) apple pie filling
- 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Spread apple pie filling evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.
- Sprinkle cake mix evenly over the apple filling. Do not stir.
- Drizzle melted butter evenly over the cake mix, covering as much of the surface as possible.
- Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over the top if using.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.
Notes
- You can use spice cake mix instead of yellow cake mix for extra flavor.
- Fresh sliced apples (about 6 cups) can replace canned filling—just mix with 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons flour before layering.
- This dessert is best served warm but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
