How to Make Cake Mix Apple Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and core 6 medium apples. Slice apples crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  3. Place apple slices in a greased 9-inch square baking pan.
  4. Sprinkle 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix evenly over the apples.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  6. Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the cake mix layer.
  7. Dot the top with 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. If the topping browns too quickly, loosely cover the pan with aluminum foil.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired!
