Equipment
- 1 9-inch round cake pan greased and floured
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
Ingredients
Base
- 2 cans 21 oz each apple pie filling
Topping
- 1 box 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
Optional
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or non-stick spray.
- Spread the apple pie filling evenly in the bottom of the prepared cake pan. If desired, sprinkle with ground cinnamon for added flavor.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix with melted butter. Stir until the mixture becomes crumbly.
- Evenly distribute the crumbly cake mixture over the apple pie filling. If using, sprinkle chopped pecans over the top.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes. The top should be golden brown and the apple filling bubbling.
- Allow the cobbler to cool for 10 minutes before serving. This will help the filling set slightly.
- Cut into slices and serve warm. This cobbler pairs well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Storage
- Store leftover cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes before serving.
- You can prepare the cobbler up to a day in advance and store it unbaked in the refrigerator. Bake just before serving for fresh crispness.
