Equipment

  • Mixing bowl Large enough for batter
  • Wooden spoon or spatula For mixing
  • 9x13 inch baking dish Or similar size
  • Nonstick spray To grease the dish
  • cooling rack Optional, for faster cooling

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 box cake mix (any flavor, 15.25 oz)
  • 1 can pie filling (any flavor, about 21 oz)
  • **Optional Toppings:**
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting
  • Whipped cream or ice cream, for serving
  • Chopped nuts or chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
  • In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add pie filling and stir until well combined.
  • Add dry cake mix to the bowl. Fold everything together until just combined. Batter will be thick and a little lumpy.
  • Spread batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  • Let cake cool for 10–15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with optional toppings like whipped cream or ice cream.
