Instructions
1. Preheat & Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix It Up!
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, apple pie filling, and eggs. Mix until well combined. A hand mixer or spatula works great! For a smoother texture, gently break up the apple slices while mixing.
3. Bake to Perfection
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
4. Cool & Enjoy!
Let the cake cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Top with whipped cream or ice cream for an extra special treat!
Cooking Notes
- Spice it up! Use spice cake mix instead of yellow for a warmer, fall flavor.
- Smoother Texture: For an even smoother cake, chop or mash the apple pie filling before mixing.
Variations
- Spice Addition: Add a teaspoon of cinnamon or apple pie spice to the batter.
- Nutty Crunch: Stir in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Caramel Apple Pie: Drizzle with caramel sauce after baking.
