Ingredients
2 (21 ounce) cans Apple Pie Filling
1 (15.25 ounce) box Yellow Cake Mix
1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Pour both cans of apple pie filling evenly into a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spread the dry yellow cake mix uniformly over the layer of apple pie filling.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix.
Bake for 40 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the juices to set.
Notes
Use salted butter if you prefer a savory-sweet balance to cut through the sugar. You can also sprinkle half a teaspoon of cinnamon over the cake mix layer for an extra boost of warmth. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
