Ingredients
- 42 oz apple pie filling
- 0.5 cup caramel sauce
- 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- vanilla ice cream (for serving, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or a thin layer of butter.
Pour the apple pie filling evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Drizzle the caramel sauce evenly over the apple pie filling.
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the top of the caramel and apple layer, ensuring full coverage.
Melt the butter and pour it evenly over the cake mix layer, trying to cover as much of the surface as possible.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the top of the butter layer for added flavor.
If using chopped pecans, distribute them evenly over the top of the cake mix and butter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Allow the cake to cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
