Apple Pie Dump Cake Tips:
- Cooking time – Crock pots can vary and the cooking time may need to be adjusted.
- Remove the lid – If the top is not getting crispy, remove the lid in the last few minutes of cooking. This will help to remove any moisture that has formed.
- Crockpot liners – Line the slow cooker with a liner to make clean up easy. This is such a time saver and very convenient. If you do not have any, make sure to spray the crock with cooking spray.

- Try spiced cake mix instead of yellow cake mix. Crockpot apple dump cake with spice cake mix is amazing.
