Apple Dump Cake

Do you need an EASY recipe when you’re entertaining? Then you are going to want to check out this easy recipe for Apple Dump Cake.

The recipe is just like the recipe says, it’s a dump cake recipe meaning you literally dump everything into a baking dish and bake!  How easy is that?

I made this Apple Dump Cake this weekend when we hosted 18 people at our house after our annual Fall Church Cleanup.  My husband was in charge and he invited everyone over to our house for lunch.

I needed an easy recipe to make because of my work schedule.  I immediately thought of the very popular Peach Crunch Cake recipe that’s been on the blog forever, but I knew I wanted to celebrate fall.

What better way to celebrate Fall than with apples!  So I swapped out the peaches for apples and it was so easy and delicious, I know you’re going to love it as much as we did.
