Description

This Crockpot Apple Cobbler is a warm, comforting dessert featuring tender apple pie filling topped with a cinnamon-spiced cake mix and buttery drizzle. Made easily in a slow cooker, it’s perfect for a cozy treat that requires minimal hands-on time. It can be made gluten-free by using an appropriate cake mix and is delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Filling

  • 2 cans (20 oz each) apple pie filling

Topping

  • 1 box gluten-free or regular yellow cake mix
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the inside of the crockpot or slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or line it with a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
  2. Add Apple Filling: Pour the apple pie filling evenly into the bottom of the crockpot, spreading it out as a base layer.
  3. Mix Topping: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, packed light brown sugar, and cinnamon until well mixed.
  4. Layer the Topping: Sprinkle the cake mix mixture evenly over the apple filling in the crockpot.
  5. Add Butter: Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl and drizzle it evenly over the cake mix topping to help it cook up moist and golden.
  6. Cover and Cook: Place a paper towel over the crockpot opening and then set the lid tightly on top; this keeps moisture balanced while cooking. Set the crockpot to high and cook for 3 hours.
  7. Serve: Once cooked, serve the apple cobbler warm. Optionally add vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce for an extra indulgent dessert.

Notes

  • For gluten-free option, ensure you use a certified gluten-free yellow cake mix.
  • You can substitute light brown sugar with dark brown sugar for a richer molasses flavor.
  • If you prefer a slower cook, set the crockpot to low and cook for 6 hours, though texture may vary slightly.
  • The paper towel under the lid helps to absorb excess moisture and prevent the topping from becoming soggy.
  • Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be warmed gently before serving.
