Can I use homemade apple pie filling?

Absolutely! Homemade apple pie filling works great in this dump cake recipe. Just make sure your apples are tender and the mixture isn't too runny - I like adding a tablespoon of cornstarch to thicken it up if needed.

Can I make apple pie dump cake in a crockpot?

You bet! Layer everything the same way but cook on high for 2-3 hours. The top won't get as crispy as oven-baked apple pie dump cake, but it's just as delicious and perfect for potlucks!

Can I add caramel to my apple dump cake?

Oh honey, caramel makes this easy apple dump cake even better! Try swirling half a cup into the filling before adding the cake mix, or drizzle it over the baked dessert when serving.

What cake mix flavors work best for apple spice dump cake?

Spice cake mix is my favorite alternative for apple spice dump cake - it gives that extra fall flavor kick. Yellow cake keeps it classic, while butter pecan adds a delicious nutty twist to this easy fall dessert.
