Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Yellow cake mix
- 21 oz Apple pie filling
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish using nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the apple pie filling, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix well, ensuring the apple pieces are evenly coated.
Spread the apple mixture evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In another bowl, add the yellow cake mix and eggs. Melt the butter and pour it into the mixture. Stir until all components are combined into a thick batter.
Carefully dollop the batter over the apple mixture, spreading it evenly to cover the top completely.
If desired, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the batter for added texture and flavor.
Sprinkle granulated sugar evenly over the surface of the batter for a light, sugary crust.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake layer comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
