How to Make a Cake Mix Apple Cobbler
Begin by cutting a stick of butter into cubes and placing them into the bottom of your baking pan. Place the pan in the oven so that the butter can melt.
While you wait for the butter to melt, core, peel and slice the apples. Place in a bowl and add 1/4 cup of dry cake mix, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg to apples. Mix until apples are well coated.
Now it is time to turn your attention to the SUPER simple batter. In another large bowl pour the milk over the remaining cake mix.
Whisk together until smooth. That is it! No other ingredients, no other steps!
To assemble the cake, begin with the melted butter.
Pour the cake mix batter over the top of the melted butter.
Next, add the apples to the top of the cake batter, being sure to distribute them evenly over the entire cake.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
Although it is phenomenal at room temperature, warm is where it is at. Serving up a piece of this cake straight from the oven is like a little piece of heaven.
The apples soften up and the brown sugar makes a thickened caramel sauce that is better than any cinnamon roll. Did I mention the delicious cake on top? This is sure to be a new favorite at your house too.
