CARAMEL APPLE DUMP CAKE

Recipe

If you’ve never heard of or made a dump cake, the ingredients are few and the process literally involves “dumping” ingredients in even layers into a baking dish, then covering them with melted butter before baking. The beauty of this cake is that you can easily substitute other fruit fillings based on what you like. This recipe is quick and easy because it uses apple pie filling rather than fresh apples. The moistness of the apple pie filling binds perfectly with the dry cake mix to provide the soft-cooked apple and moist cake-crumble texture that’s always a crowd pleaser. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
