ELECTRIC SKILLET FRUIT NUT DUMP CAKE



Line the bottom of the electric skillet with one layer of aluminum foil. Preheat skillet to 275° with the cover on.Generously  grease the foil with oil, shortening or butter.Prepare cake according to the directions below.Place cover slightly ajar on skillet, or open top vent and bake 45 minutes to an hour or until done. Place plate over skillet and invert to remove cake. Remove liner while cake is still hot.
I prefer to use a disposable foil cake pan when camping,but either method works great.




CHERRY  ELECTRIC SKILLET  DUMP CAKE

Spread fruit filling of choice on bottom of a lightly greased foil pan that fits your  electric skillet. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over fruit. Drizzle with the melted butter. Sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired .
