Cran-apple Dump Cake
You can make a dump cake out of virtually any fruit combination, even a can of pumpkin. I have been craving cranberry everything lately, so after making cranberry sauce with apples for Thanksgiving, I thought what the heck. Maybe the flavors would be good for a dump cake. Easy, tart, and just the right amount of sweet. I used sugar-free apple pie filling, but regular is okay. If you choose to use fresh cranberries instead of the canned stuff, you'll need to add maybe 1/4 cup sugar to the fruit layer. Here you go.
Ingredients:
1 can whole berry cranberry sauce
2 cans apple pie filling (I used sugar free, because it's what I had on hand)
1 box yellow cake mix
1 stick butter, sliced (I've made it with less, and it's okay, but the whole stick is best)
Yes, that's all the ingredients you need.
Directions:
1. Spread the can of cranberry sauce evenly across the bottom of the pan. You can either chop it up or stir it to make it easier to spread.
2. Spread the can of apple pie filling evenly atop the cranberry sauce.
3. Sprinkle the cake mix over the top.
4. Place the slices of butter over the top of the cake mix. Alternately you can melt the butter first, then drizzle it over the cake mix layer. It really doesn't matter which you do.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 35-45 minutes or until the top is golden and the fruit is bubbly.
Serve warm, with our without ice cream. It's also good cold out of the fridge. Some folks call this a cobbler, but it's really not. I'll be posting a traditional cobbler recipe soon, or check out my mom's blackberry cobbler recipe.
