How To Make Apple Spice Dump Cake in a Cast Iron Skillet
Did you know you can make Apple Spice Dump Cake in a cast iron skillet, too?
It’s SO easy!
Simply follow the instructions in the recipe below for the Slow Cooker Apple Dump Cake, but instead, bake in a 12″ cast iron skillet in the oven at 350 degrees for 50 minutes, or until top is crispy and edges are hot and bubbly.
Also, instead of spraying with non-stick cooking spray, when using a skillet I like to pour 3 tbsp. Melted Butter into bottom of 12″ Cast Iron Skillet & swirl around so bottom of skillet is evenly coated.
Do You Refrigerate Apple Dump Cake?
Yes you can.
This Slow Cooker Apple Spice Dump Cake Recipe serves up a whole lot of goodness.
So much goodness, that it may just last you for days.
Although this dump cake is best enjoyed the same day you make it, if you need too, leftovers can be saved in your fridge.
Can You Eat Apple Crumble Cold?
I don’t recommend serving your apple crumble cold.
This Apple Spice Crock Pot Dump Cake is definitely best enjoyed when served hot!
To make it even more amazing, be sure to top it with some whipped cream or a large scoop of vanilla ice cream.
YUM!

Hortensia Celiceo says
I have a 7qt. crockpot will that work or do I have too double the recipe?
Kim B says
I used exactly as recipe says but mine was more of a thicker batter mix now a crumble… idk why it was different. Hope this works. Smells good.
Wendy says
Has anyone ever doubled this successfully??? Would like to add this to Thanksgiving dessert lineup but need it to help feed a crowd….
Katie says
I would love to know if you doubled the recipe! I’m thinking of doing that too!
Wendy Barnes says
I didnt double it. I was really worried that it may not cook all the way.
What with having it for the holiday. Would have been a disaster.
Good luck if you try it, please report back if you do.
Alicia L says
I’m trying a double recipe today…wish me luck!!
wendy barnes says
Good luck! Please let us know how it turns out
Erin says
If I double the recipe will that be a bad thing? How will it turn out in the crockpot? Do I need to cook it longer because I am doubling it?
Melinda says
Can I use the crockpot liners in the crockpot?
Melinda says
Can you crockpot bag liners in the crockpot?
Nannette says
What temperature and tI’m would you use to bake instead?
Heidi says
Hi Nannette,
If baking the Apple Spice Dump Cake in the oven, you’ll want to bake for around 30 minutes at 350 degrees in a 9×13 pan.
Hope that helps! 🙂
Joyce Gillespie says
What spice would I need to add to a sugar free cake mix to make the apple spice cake
Connie says
What about if you used apple pie spice in the sugar free cake mix, or use cinnamon and some nutmeg to spice it up
armie herrera says
out of cooking spray what else can I use?butter or lard?
Diana says
I would use butter or coconut oil.
Mary says
Has anyone tried this with fresh apples? I’m guessing you would have to season and cook the apples. Any ideas?
Diana says
Doing fresh apples at this very moment. Put some cinnamon, butter and trivia sugar on top.
I’ll finish cooking it with cake mix in morning.
Mary Beth says
What size croc pot did you use?
Heidi says
Hi Mary Beth ~ I used a 5.5 quart for this recipe. 🙂
