Baking Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit if baking, or lightly grease a 6-quart slow cooker insert.
  • Spread the apple pie filling evenly across the bottom of your baking dish or slow cooker insert.
  • Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the apple filling. Do not stir.
  • Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix layer.
  • Pour the caramel topping over the butter layer. Again, do not stir.
  • For Oven Baking: Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • For Slow Cooker: Cook on low for 3 to 4 hours or on high for 1.5 to 2 hours, until set.
  • Let the cake cool slightly before serving warm, preferably with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

You can substitute the yellow cake mix with white or butter flavor for slight variations. For a thicker caramel layer, use slightly more than one cup of topping. For a richer flavor, use salted butter.
