Apple Pie Filling Coffee Cake
This soft, moist coffee cake combines a boxed white cake mix with tangy sour cream, warm cinnamon, and sweet apple pie filling. A simple powdered‑sugar glaze finishes the dessert, making it perfect for fall gatherings or a cozy coffee break.
Instructions
-
Preheat oven and prepare pan
Set the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9‑by‑13‑inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. -
Make the batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the white cake mix, ground cinnamon, sour cream, eggs, and water until smooth. -
Add batter to pan
Spread the batter evenly in the greased baking dish. -
Add apple filling
Scatter the chopped apple pie filling over the batter, spreading it to cover the surface. -
Bake
Bake for about 40 minutes at 350°F, or until the cake is set and a toothpick inserted into a plain cake area comes out clean. -
Make the glaze
While the cake cools, whisk powdered sugar with 1–1½ tablespoons milk in a small bowl until smooth. Add more milk if needed for a pourable glaze. -
Cool and glaze
Allow the cake to cool completely, then drizzle or spread the glaze over the top. -
Serve
Cut into squares and enjoy with coffee, tea, or milk.
Tips
If you prefer a thicker glaze, use less milk; for a thinner drizzle, add a bit more. For extra texture, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon sugar on the glaze before it sets.
