With fall approaching, there are a few things we are looking forward to here at Smart School House. We love the crisp and cool air as well as beautiful fall leaves. We love pumpkins and looking forward to all of the holidays. But, most of all we look forward to the scrumptious fall recipes we love to make! Today I am sharing my Apple Cinnamon Dump Cake recipe that my kids can’t get enough of.
Apple Cinnamon Dump Cake
When I made it today they kept coming inside to grab just another bite. They were out with all the neighborhood kids but just couldn’t get enough. It stayed warm in the kitchen and I kept ice cream nearby just for the warm and cold bites to pair each time they came inside to visit me (ok, I know they just wanted to eat cake LOL!)
What is a dump cake?
A dump cake is a SUPER easy cake recipe made with cake mix and fruit filling. You basically dump the ingredients into a baking dish then place it in the oven. They are SO easy to make!

French vanilla cake mix (any brand)
-
Apple pie filling (any brand)

A dump cake is like the slow cooker version of homemade cakes… but doesn’t take nearly as long as a crockpot! I love any recipe where you can set it and forget it!
Apple Cinnamon Dump Cake Recipe
The cake mix is combined with melted butter to make an irresistible crumble top to the dump cake. It cooks over the apple pie filling to create an irresistible, unforgettable, and unreal apple cinnamon taste!
Fall recipes are for cozying up, enjoying the fruit of the season (like apples!), and enjoying time together as a family. The most important thing in the world is family and love. The most important thing in the world is family and love.
If you prefer to use fresh apple pie filling, go for it! Trust me, it’s a recipe you will make and your family will gobble it up in no time!

- 1/2 cup of brown Sugar

- Sprinkle the brown sugar on top
- Add ground cinnamon over the brown sugar (I do a light even coat throughout).
