For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a cream cheese frosting or a dusting of powdered sugar before serving. Feel free to substitute pecans or almonds for the walnuts, depending on your preference. If you don't have apple pie filling on hand, you can use 2 cups of chopped apples mixed with 1/4 cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Nov 19, 2023I was skeptical about the apple pie filling, but it made the cake so moist! I'll definitely be making this again.
