Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 (21 ounce) cans apple pie filling (can use sugar free)
Topping
- 2 (7 ounce) packets Martha White Apple Cinnamon muffin mix (or your favorite brand)
- ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted (or cut into slices)
Instructions
- Prepare Slow Cooker: Lightly spray a 4-6 quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Add Apple Filling: Pour both cans of apple pie filling evenly into the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Sprinkle Muffin Mix: Evenly sprinkle the two packets of apple cinnamon muffin mix over the apple pie filling layer.
- Add Butter: Pour the melted butter over the muffin mix, covering as much as possible though it may not fully cover the dry mix. Alternatively, distribute sliced butter evenly over the muffin mix.
- Cook the Cake: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 3 to 5 hours, or until the muffin mix is fully cooked and the apple pie filling is bubbly.
Notes
- Using sugar-free apple pie filling reduces sugar content for a lighter dessert.
- Martha White Apple Cinnamon muffin mix adds enhanced cinnamon flavor, but any similar mix can be substituted.
- Butter can be melted or sliced—both methods yield delicious results.
- Timing varies depending on the slow cooker; check doneness starting at 3 hours.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
