Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cans (21 oz each) Apple Pie Filling
- 1 box (approximately 15.25 oz) Spice Cake Mix (dry)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted Butter, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking the cake evenly.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish well with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving.
- Add Apple Pie Filling: Pour both cans of apple pie filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly as the base layer.
- Sprinkle Cake Mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry spice cake mix over the apple filling, ensuring all the apples are covered to create a flavorful crust.
- Add Butter Slices: Slice the butter into thin pats and distribute them evenly on top of the cake mix layer. This helps create a rich, moist topping as it bakes.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 60 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Cool Slightly: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes to thicken before serving.
- Serve: Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
