How to make Caramel Apple Dumpcake
FAQ
Does apple dump cake need to be refrigerated?
Although it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to four days, apple dump cake is best when eaten right out of the oven. Allow the dump cake to cool completely at room temperature. Once cool, transfer to an airtight container or cover tightly with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator. Refrigerated Apple Dump Cake is good for 3-4 days.
What is the difference between a dump cake and a cobbler?
They taste and look very similar, so what makes a cobbler different from a dump cake? Both have a layer of fruit filling. A store-bought cake mix is used to make a dump cake, while Bisquick topping is used on a cobbler.
Does fruit dump cake need to be refrigerated?
Once baked and cooled, the dump cake needs to be refrigerated. If the fruit in the cake is left on the counter, it will quickly go bad. The cherry cake can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Why do they call it dump cake?
An American dessert called a “dump cake” resembles a cobbler but has a cake-like topping. It gets its name from the fact that it is made by simply “dumping” ingredients into a cake pan without mixing them first (typically canned fruit or pie filling, then a boxed cake mix).
