This was another Pinterest find, though I’m not sure where it originated. It looked way too simple not to try. Indeed, it came out like a warm cobbler and made for a very satisfying treat. All-in-all this is a nice, quick dessert when you need something quick for a sweet finish.
1 can of apple pie filling and 1 box of Angel food cake (dry mix only). Combine both ingredients in a bowl. Transfer to greased 9×13 pan and bake at 350 deg. for 20 minutes or until top browns.
THAT’S IT! I figured it had to be too good to be true but tried it anyway and was pleasantly surprised. I made some minor adjustments though.
Here’s all 2 of the ingredients. Seriously.
When I combined the cake mix and apples, it seemed a little dry so I added about 2 tablespoons or so of milk. That gave it a good batter consistency.
Then, before I put it in the oven, I generously sprinkled a cinnamon and sugar mixture over the top of the batter. (hard to tell the difference in the picture)
I cooked it for about 25 minutes until the top was good and brown. Sorry, the pictures aren’t the best. I was in a hurry.
You can just see the apples inside the cake.
We ate it after dinner with vanilla ice cream and all four of us agreed that it is great! It’s light and fluffy with a bit of apple. 5 stars for as easy as it is! Next time I make it, I might try adding a little more fruit though – maybe another 1/2 can of apples or so. I don’t know if 2 whole cans would mess up the baking or not. I might need to try it that way sometime just to find out. I would also suggest serving it warm out of the oven with a little bit of caramel drizzled over the top and 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Hungry yet?
