INGREDIENT NOTES:
NO-SUGAR-ADDED CHERRY PIE FILLING:
- It makes the juicy fruit layer that gets delicious while baking. You may use mixed berry pie filling as per your preference.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- This extract improves the sweetness of the cherries and provide a rich homemade flavor. Pure vanilla extract gives the best flavor and makes the dessert delicious. You may use maple extract as another choice.
SUGAR-FREE YELLOW CAKE MIX:
- It makes the soft cake topping with zero effort. This cake mix keeps the dessert lighter and gives a delicious golden crust. You may use white cake mix as an alternative.
UNSWEETENED APPLESAUCE:
- We use this applesauce instead of butter to give a low-calorie and moist topping to the dessert. It gives natural sweetness to the cake. You may use mashed banana as a substitute.
BUTTER:
- It makes the brown topping and gives a buttery taste to the cake. Butter keeps the recipe light and gives better results. You may use cooking spray as another idea.
