How to make Caramel Apple Dump Cake
Oven-Baked Caramel Apple Dump Cake:
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees.
Step 2: Spoon the cans of apple pie filling into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
Step 3: Then, pour the caramel over the pie filling and spread evenly before sprinkling the cake mix on top.
Step 4: Evenly put the thinly sliced pats of butter over the cake mix. Or you can melt the butter and drizzle over the cake mix.
Step 5: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 50 to 60 minutes.
Step 6: Once done, remove from the oven and serve with a scoop of vanilla or your choice of ice cream.
Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Dump Cake:
Step 1: Grease a 6-quart oval or oblong slow cooker crock.
Step 2: Follow the exact layering as stated above.
Step 3: Cover the slow cooker or place first some paper towels or a tea towel beneath the lid, making sure that it is not touching the top of the cake. This way the towels can catch the water droplets that may form on the lid.
Step 4: Then, cook the cake for 2 hours on high or 4 hours on low.
Notes:
If you want to cut some fat, you can use 1 stick of butter instead.
