- 1 15.25 ounce box spice cake mix (see note)
- Ingredients to make the cake oil, eggs, water listed on the box
- ½ recipe Apple Pie Filling or one 21-ounce can

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix cake mix with eggs, water and oil as called for on the box. Pour into prepared pan.
Evenly drop apple pie filling all over the top of the cake.
Bake 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool at least 20 minutes before serving (it’s great warm for breakfast or cooled for dessert).
Serve with powdered sugar or with ice cream.
- If you use a yellow cake mix, add 2 teaspoons cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon nutmeg to the cake batter.
- If you want an icing, make a powdered sugar glaze with 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, ½ teaspoon cinnamon and 2-3 tablespoons milk or heavy whipping cream. Drizzle over cake.
- Use any pie filling to switch up the flavors!
