Ingredient Notes:
Apple Pie Filling – I love canned pie filling! You can use it in so many more recipes than just pie. You could make your own homemade apple pie filling for this if you’d like to spend a little more time.
Caramel Sauce – Grab your favorite brand of caramel sauce or give this a try with our crockpot dulce de leche.
Spice Cake Mix – We like to go for a spice cake mix since it has those warm spices in it. You could also use a yellow or even white cake mix for this recipe.
Butter – You’ll place pats of butter over the dry cake mix and then the magic happens in the oven.
What We Love About This CARAMEL APPLE DUMP CAKE Recipe:
Easy: Definitely the best part to any dump cake recipe is just how simple it is to prepare. Dump it in the baking dish and bake! It’s hard to mess this one up.
Versatile: You don’t have to stick to apple! You can swap out the apple pie filling for pretty much any other canned fruit pie filling or even homemade pie fillings. Use any fruit mix you like!
Hot or Cold: This is delicious warm from the oven or cold from the fridge. You really can’t go wrong.
How to Make Caramel Apple Dump Cake:
Pour the canned pie filling into a greased 9×13 baking dish and smooth out the top.
Drizzle the caramel sauce over the pie filling. Use as much or as little as you like.
Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the top of the caramel and pie filling in an even layer.
Arrange thin slices of butter over the cake mix and pop this in the oven for an hour.
Storage:
Once the cake has cooled, cover the dish with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for about 5 days.
To reheat, pop a scoop of this on a microwave safe plate and microwave for about 30-45 seconds or until warm.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
