Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (21 ounces) apple pie filling

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • Optional: 1/4 cup caramel sauce for drizzling
  • Optional: Vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Pour the apple pie filling into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Spread it evenly.

  4. Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix.
  5. If using, sprinkle chopped nuts over the top.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let the cake cool slightly before serving.
  8. Serve warm, drizzled with caramel sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dry cake mix before baking.
  • If you don’t have yellow cake mix, white cake mix also works well.
  • This dessert is best served warm.
