This Apple Pie Dump Cake is perfect to bake when you are short on time. A Pie and Cake (serve warm or cold) all in one and no frosting needed !
You will make this cake, or pie if you wish, over and over again !
This Apple Pie Dump Cake is super convenient to make for dessert during the week.
I am always tempted to just grab an apple pie from the shelves at the supermarket on a week day.
However, nothing beats a homemade pie or cake for that matter !
And two desserts in one ? Winner all the way.
If you think of this specific dessert as a cake you will notice there is no frosting ! Why ? Because the cake is really leaning more towards being a pie.
My personal favorite topping on a warm apple pie is double cream (not whipped, plain, as is).
Hubby and the kids are between whipped cream and ice-cream, sometimes both !
Let’s have a quick look at what you will need to make this Apple Pie Dump Cake:
- 1 can 765 grams Apple Pie Filling, ( 21 oz )
- 1 box White Cake Mix, ( 16.5 oz )
- 3 extra-large Eggs
- 1/2 cup Vegetable OIl
- 1/3 cup Chopped Walnuts
- 1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar
- 1 t Ground Cinnamon

I prefer to serve the Apple Pie Dump Cake warm, but it is just as delicious cold. Makes a great morning snack IF you have any leftovers.
Dense apple cake or more like an apple pie ?
Depending on how I feel, the cake turns out very dense (by cutting the apple pieces a lot smaller).
Or leave the apple pieces in bigger chunks (however, still cut a little smaller) and it would turn out less dense.
This of course is to your personal preferences.
