Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups apple or cherry pie filling (or fresh sliced fruit if using apples)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (if using fresh apples)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 box of yellow cake mix
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- as needed vanilla ice cream (for serving, optional)
Instructions
If using fresh apples, core, peel, and slice them into thin pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh apple slices with the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Stir well to coat evenly. (Skip this step if using canned pie filling.)
Lightly grease the inside of your crock pot with cooking spray or butter.
Spread the apple or cherry pie filling (or the prepared fresh apples) evenly in the bottom of the crock pot.
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the fruit layer, ensuring full coverage.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix. Try to cover as much of the surface as possible.
If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts over the top for extra crunch and flavor.
Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Once cooked, allow the cobbler to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious finish.
