Grandma’s 4-Ingredient Apple Cinnamon Dump Cake
Prep time: 10 minutes | Bake time: 45–50 minutes
Pan Size: 9x13-inch baking dish
Oven temperature: 350°F / 175°C
Ingredients:
2 cans (21 oz each) apple pie filling
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 box yellow cake mix
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Steps:
Step 1: Spread the apple pie filling evenly in your baking dish, then sprinkle cinnamon over the top, letting it settle into the tender apples like the start of something cozy.
Step 2: Pour the dry cake mix evenly over the apples without stirring, covering every inch so that no fruit peeks through just yet.
Step 3: Drizzle the melted butter slowly across the surface, soaking the mix so it bakes into a crisp, golden crust with bubbling edges.
Step 4: Bake until the top is deeply golden and the apples underneath are thick and glossy, with syrup gently bubbling at the corners.
