I had this cobbler ready for the oven in 5 minutes!

And the taste? A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! If you enjoy apples and cranberries you will love this combination of fruit and nuts. I made a large batch of this recipe for some friends who were recently bereaved and then a small dish for us to sample. Yes, our sample got gobbled up really quickly.
Many of our local grocery stores have stocked up on many wonderful combinations of Lucky Leaf pie fillings for the holidays. I’m talking about flavors and combinations I’ve never seen before. I saw an Apple-Cranberry combination and snapped up four cans before they could all be grabbed up by others!
I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with the pie filling at first. Then it dawned on me to make a delicious dump cake cobbler with them. Yes, yes, yes, this is a gold medal recipe! Apple Cranberry Dump Cake Cobbler turned out with excellent taste, texture, and appearance.
This recipe is great hot out of the oven and served with ice cream or whipped cream. I drizzled caramel sauce over top of mine. But this dessert is rich and sweet enough without any other topping. If you’re looking for a quick and easy, yet festive, holiday dessert, then consider this delicious recipe. You can’t go wrong with a dessert that only takes 5 minutes to make and only requires 5 ingredients!

Here’s what I did.
I found four cans of Apple Cranberry pie filling from Lucky Leaf. An added bonus is there is NO high fructose corn syrup in this pie filling. Yay!
I also used 2 sticks of unsalted butter, one box of butter recipe cake mix and a cup each of coconut and pecans.
Spray a 9×13″ glass baking dish with cooking spray. Pour pie filling into pan. (The large foil pan was made for some friends. I pulled out a little bit of the pie filling and put it in a really small small dish so we could sample some of this great dessert, too.)
Sprinkle finely diced walnuts over top.
Sprinkle with coconut.
Pour a dry Butter Recipe cake mix over top.
Pour two sticks of melted butter over top of the dry cake mix.
Try to pour the melted butter as evenly over the cake as possible. Cover as much of the entire surface as you can.
Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until you see the pie filling bubbling up thickly over the top of the crust.
I cut this dessert with a spatula but you can serve it with a serving spoon, too.
Every bite of this luscious dessert is filled with apples and cranberries. Sweet and tart go together so well in this dessert.
This tasty dump cake recipe is great to take for potlucks or any family gathering.
Here’s the recipe.

i make this and it’s very good! but it is very sweet due to the canned pie filling and the cake mix and it’s also salty due to the salted butter and the two sticks of butter make it very rich. if you like a heavy dose of sweet and salty this will do it for you.
if you like a lighter touch of sweet/salt/fat, here are some substitutions which will yield a still delicious dessert:
1 can of apple pie filling
1 can of whole berry cranberry sauce
1 cup of real cranberries
1 box Duncan Hines butter recipe yellow cake mix
½ cup Diamond finely chopped walnuts
1 stick of unsalted butter (melted)
Directions:
Boil cranberries until skin cracks then rinse in cold water
Combine pie filling, cranberry sauce, and cranberries
Pour into greased 9/13 pan
Combine the cake mix and the walnuts
Slowly mix the melted butter into the cake/walnut mix until it resembles coarse crumbs
Pour the cake mix/walnut/butter crumble on top of the pie filling.

Well the point of this is to be a “quick cobbler”. If you want a real cobbler it’s going to take more time. Then you can use real fruits and make the crumble topping from scratch also. For those in a hurry this produces a very good dessert that’s always been well received at any party I take it to during the holidays.
