This old-fashioned apple cobbler dump cake is a nostalgic, comforting dessert that brings the flavors of a classic cobbler with the ease of a dump cake. Made with tender, spiced apples, a buttery cake topping, and a hint of cinnamon, this simple recipe requires just a few pantry staples.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish
In a medium bowl, toss the sliced apples with 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. Spread the apples evenly in the baking dish.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until just combined (batter will be slightly thick).
Pour or spoon the batter evenly over the apples—no need to mix!
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
Let cool slightly and serve warm. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a sweet and creamy finish.
