This is a great recipe to make with kids as there are only a few simple steps (aside from peeling and slicing the apples) that little ones can easily help with.
I first made this recipe years ago and it was a hit! It is easy and is a delicious way to welcome Fall into your kitchen.
What You Need:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 package yellow cake mix
1/2 cup flaked coconut
2 1/2 cups peeled and sliced baking apples
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup sour cream
1 egg or 2 egg yolks
Pre-heat oven to 350F. Mix butter into dry cake mix until you get a crumbly mixture. Add in coconut. Pat mixture into a 13 x 9" pan (build up the edges a bit to keep in the apples). Bake for 10 minutes.
Arrange the apple slices on the warm crust. Mix the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle on top of the apples. Mix the sour cream and egg or egg yolks and drizzle over the apples. The mixture will not cover all of the apples.
Bake 25 minutes (do not overbake). Serves 12-15 people. Best served warm.
