Ingredients

• 1 box Betty Crocker Super Moist Spice Cake Mix (15.25 oz)
• 1 can Apple Pie Filling or Topping (20–21 oz, any brand — Great Value, Comstock, or homemade)

Optional (for extra flavor and texture):

• ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
• ½ cup raisins or dried cranberries

Equipment

• 1 large mixing bowl
• A spoon or spatula for mixing
• Bundt pan or 9×13-inch baking dish
• Nonstick spray or butter for greasing
• Oven preheated to 350°F (175°C)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your Bundt pan or baking dish thoroughly with butter or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients
In a large bowl, empty the spice cake mix. Add the entire can of apple pie filling (do not drain). Gently fold the mixture together until well combined. The batter will be thick and chunky because of the apple pieces — that’s exactly what you want.

Step 3: Optional Add-Ins
If you’re adding nuts, raisins, or extra spices, gently fold them in now. These additions can elevate your cake from simple to gourmet in just seconds.

Step 4: Fill the Pan
Pour or spoon the batter evenly into your prepared Bundt pan or baking dish. Smooth out the top with a spatula so it bakes evenly.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for about 40–45 minutes if using a Bundt pan, or 35–40 minutes for a 9×13-inch pan. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 6: Cool and Serve
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10–15 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a plate. Once it’s cooled completely, you can slice and serve as-is or top with your favorite glaze.
