3-Ingredient Apple Dump Cake

Dump cakes became popular when cake mixes were introduced and are considered a classic American dessert. They usually contain fruit (traditionally pie filling), dry cake mix, and butter. As you can guess by their name, the ingredients are dumped into the pan without any mixing, which means getting this 3-ingredient apple cake into the oven can be done with little to no effort at all. The consistency of dump cakes is more like a fruit cobbler or fruit crisp than they are cake-like. Other ingredients such as nuts and spices can be added for endless variations and to make it your own. They are heavenly served warm with ice cream or whipped cream on top. Because of its simplicity to get it to the oven, it’s a terrific end to any weeknight meal or whenever you are in the mood for a sweet treat! It also feeds a crowd, so it’s a great one to bring to a potluck. If someone you love is feeling ill, this comforting recipe will bring them a lot of cheer while being quick and easy for you to throw together. This homey, casual dessert with fresh apples is great to serve anytime of the year.
