Pour the pie apple directly into the base of your slow cooker and sprinkle generously with cinnamon.

Mix cake mix up as per packet directions.

Pour batter over apples, trying to cover all the surface area of the apple with cake.

Cover with tea towel and cook on HIGH for 90mins approx or when skewer inserted comes out clean

Sever with cream or ice-cream :)

**Notes**

- I used a 5L slow cooker so the surface area is not too large.

- You can always make this in another dish inside your cooker if you worry yours will spread out too flat in a large one (see Cakes 101)

- The pie mix is one with not a lot of liquid in the can, it's the soft, almost mashed, canned apples you are looking for.

- If you want to make your own cake mix instead of the packet cake you can of course do so - we used a packet mix deliberately in this recipe as we wanted this to be a fast easy dish to whip up :)
