FAQ

A: Nope! The moisture from the pie filling replaces both the oil and water.
Q: Can I use homemade pie filling?
A: Absolutely. Just make sure it’s thick and not too runny.
Q: Can this be made into cupcakes?
A: Yes! Pour the batter into lined muffin tins and bake for about 20–22 minutes.
Q: How do I keep the cake extra moist?
A: Don’t overbake it. Check a few minutes early—every oven runs a bit differently.
