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. Immediately, I thought of the very popular Peach Crunch Cake recipe that’s been on the blog forever. However, 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.

Trust me, okay? Next, open the bag of yellow cake mix and sprinkle on top of the apples. Then you add the brown sugar and chopped pecans.

How Long to Bake

Tips for Baking and Serving

The most important tip is to make sure to spread out the cake mix so there are not large mounds on top of the apples.
Sometimes, no matter how well you think you’ve distributed the cake mix, you’ll see clumps starting to form.
If you notice clumps, take a fork and break up any clumps, then return the cake to the oven to continue baking.
You can also try making this apple dump cake using a spice cake mix!
This easy recipe is delicious warm from the oven but you may want it to cool down just a bit so you can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or freshly made whipped cream.
