We absolutely love this stuff. We love the way the sauce caramelizes around the edges. I am going to make a bunch of copies of this recipe so everyone who tries it will quit asking for it.

Ingredients

• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• ¼ cup lemon juice
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• ⅔ cup white sugar, or to taste
• 4 teaspoons apple pie spice, divided
• 12 cups peeled, cored, and chopped apples

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine sugar, cornstarch, and 2 teaspoons apple pie spice in a small bowl.

Step 2

Place apples in a large slow cooker. Stir in spice mixture and toss with lemon juice.

Step 3

Mix cake mix, brown sugar, and remaining apple pie spice together in a medium bowl. Stir in melted butter until thoroughly blended; mixture will be crumbly. Sprinkle over apples in the cooker.

Step 4

Cover and cook until apples are tender, on Low for 4 hours or on High for 2 hours. Partially uncover the slow cooker and continue to cook until the topping has hardened, about 1 hour more.
