Directions
Gently heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix the apples and pumpkin butter together until they’re well combined. Spread this mixture evenly in an 8 or 9-inch square baking dish. Next, take the pumpkin bread mix and put it in another bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs, then sprinkle it evenly over the apples. Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the apples are tender when you poke them with a fork. It’s delicious served warm with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Perfect Pairings
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. It also pairs nicely with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Keeping It Fresh
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving to bring back the warm, comforting taste. For longer storage, freeze portions and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
