Ingredients:

  • 2 cans (21 oz each) apple pie filling
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the apple pie filling into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it with a spatula until it forms a smooth, even layer. Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the apples if desired.
  2. Evenly sprinkle the yellow cake mix over the top of the fruit. Use your hand or a spoon to ensure there are no large clumps, but do not stir the mix into the apples.
  3. Pour the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, covering as much of the dry surface as possible to ensure a golden finish.
  4. Bake for 35–40 minutes until the edges are bubbling and the top is a deep mahogany gold.
