Backcountry Apple Dump Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
• Spread apples evenly in bottom of pan. Top with dry cake mix; gently shake pan to distribute evenly. Pour melted butter over top, tilting pan to cover as much of the top with butter as possible.
• Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until light golden brown, mostly dry on top and bubbly around edges.

Steps:

• In a greased 9 X 13 inch baking dish, mix apple pie filling and caramel sauce.
• You may add in the 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, if desired.
• Spread evenly in the pan.
• Pour dry cake mix directly on top of the pie filling and spread evenly.
• Top with melted butter and pecans. (optional).
• Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until top is golden brown and apple filling is bubbly.

Steps:

• For conventional oven:.
• Spray bottom of a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray and pour in the apple pie filling. (For a lighter version, use 1 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce).
• Pour in the spice cake mix ontop.
• Cut up butter or margarine and place in dollops ontop of the cake mix. NOTE: When I make this at home I omit all butter and increase water to 1 cup to make it healthier, but if you want the real deal use the butter.
• Pour 1/2 cup of water slowly overtop.
• Bake at 350 degrees about 20 minutes*IMPORTANT* After the first five minutes or so take the pan out and stir the mixture so that the water gets evenly distributed throughout the cake, otherwise the top will burn.
• For Dutch oven:.
• Spray the bottom of a 10 or 12 inch dutch oven with cooking spray (I used 12 inch) and pour in the apple pie filling.
• Pour the spice cake mix overtop.
• Cut up the butter or margarine and put dollops ontop.
• Slowly pour 1/2 cup of water overtop.
• Place in the coals of a small/medium fire and shovel coals ontop of the oven for even baking.
• After about 5 minutes of baking, remove oven from fire and stir well the contents.
• ROTATE the dutch oven approximately every 5 to 10 minutes to prevent one side from burning. Depending on heat it takes 25-45 minutes to cook. Pull the dutch oven out of the fire when the center of the cake is springy but not hard, as the cake will continue baking until it is served.
