Ingredients

• 1 box Yellow cake mix
• 21 oz Apple pie filling
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish using nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the apple pie filling, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix well, ensuring the apple pieces are evenly coated.

Step 3

Spread the apple mixture evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

In another bowl, add the yellow cake mix and eggs. Melt the butter and pour it into the mixture. Stir until all components are combined into a thick batter.

Step 5

Carefully dollop the batter over the apple mixture, spreading it evenly to cover the top completely.

Step 6

If desired, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the batter for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Sprinkle granulated sugar evenly over the surface of the batter for a light, sugary crust.

Step 8

Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake layer comes out clean.

Step 9

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
