Ingredients
Scale
Fruits:
- 1 can (21 ounces / 595 grams) apple pie filling
Baking Basics:
- 1 box (15.25 ounces / 432 grams) yellow cake mix
Protein:
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350F (175C), ensuring an even heating environment for the cake.
- Blend apple pie filling and eggs in a spacious mixing vessel, whisking thoroughly until eggs are completely integrated.
- Gradually fold yellow cake mix into the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter achieves a consistent, slightly dense texture.
- Generously coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter to prevent potential sticking.
- Transfer the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula for uniform baking.
- Position the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, monitoring until a clean toothpick emerges from the center.
- Remove from oven and allow the cake to rest for 10-15 minutes, enabling it to set and cool slightly before slicing.
- Slice and serve warm, optionally garnishing with a dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Experiment with different pie fillings like cherry or peach for unique flavor variations.
- Enhance the texture by adding chopped nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon to the batter for extra crunch and warmth.
- For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free yellow cake mix and ensure the pie filling is gluten-free.
- Create a decadent topping by drizzling caramel sauce or adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a more indulgent dessert experience.
