INGREDIENTS
8 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 medium or 2 large cooking apples (I used Gala), peeled, cored and sliced
½ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 package spice cake mix
4 eggs
1 cup milk
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 13 x 9" baking dish and set aside. In a large skillet heat 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until melted. Add the apples and walnuts and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the apples are tender. Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar until combined. Spread the apple mixture into bottom of the prepared dish.
Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter and combine with the cake mix, eggs and milk in a large bowl. Mix on low speed with a stand or hand mixer for 30 seconds then on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter evenly over the apples and bake for 32-36 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool dish on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Then loosen the sides of the cake from the dish with a knife and invert the cake onto a serving plate.
