Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 42 ounces canned apple pie filling
- 1 box spice cake mix
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Spread the canned apple pie filling evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
If desired, sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the apple pie filling for added spice.
Evenly sprinkle the spice cake mix (dry, straight from the box) over the apple pie filling. Do not mix.
Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cake mix, ensuring it’s as evenly distributed as possible.
If using, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top for extra crunch.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
