Apple Pie Lasagna

Oh, what’s that? You haven’t heard of an apple pie lasagna? Well, truthfully, I hadn’t either. The idea popped in my head two weeks ago and I was all “oh my gosh it’s going to be all layers of apple and yum and goo and IT HAS TO HAPPEN this weekend” but then it didn’t… until this past weekend.  The inlaws announced they’d be coming up to give the kids birthday gifts and would be staying for dinner…I needed a dessert to serve. You only need THREE ingredients!! I should call it a semi-homemade recipe, I guess.  But whatever. You can make it from scratch. If you don’t have the time, this is SO super simple to prep and so super simple to make… the kids had a blast assembling it.

Apple Pie Lasagna

Ingredients

1 can apple pie filling (next time, we will double our pie filling so we can have a higher fruit to crust ratio)

1 jar caramel sauce, warmed so that it pours/drizzles easily

1-2 premade pie crusts at room temperature

Nonstick spray for your pan, plus a 9×13 pan

Cut 2nd pie crust into strips to fit across your pan (layer it like a regular lasagna)

I think next time, we’ll do an apple-pear pie lasagne. There are SO many options to make- and so many canned fruits in our cantry!

Canned foods make homemade easy! 

Canned foods mean less prep and year-round availability, making healthy, homemade meals a reality, more often.

A well-stocked pantry – your “Cantry ” – helps you get through the week with creative meals you can feel good about serving your family and friends.

 

Cans help waste less food, saving us time and money, and reducing our impact on the environment. 

 

Americans throw away approximately 15 percent to 20 percent of the fresh fruits and vegetables they purchase every year.

 

Canned food portion sizes are just right for both individuals and families, and most recipes are designed around these sizes.

 

Metal cans are endlessly recyclable and, in fact, are the most recycled containers in America today, keeping metal out of landfills and saving significant energy.

    I love this idea but would make it with fresh apples….my hubby loves apple pie but not a fan of canned apples. Thanks for the idea.

    I’ve never heard of apple pie lasagna either, but it definitely sounds easy and yummy! Looks like it’d go perfectly with some vanilla ice cream too. 🙂 I hope you can stop on by and share this or any other recipe with us on Five Friday Finds!

    This looks super easy to make! I’m wondering why I’ve never tried something like this. We bought an apple pie just last night so this would definitely be a hit in my house.

    I am not too much of a lasagna person, but this one… YES! I love it. What a fun twist on the base apple pie. LOVE IT! Thanks for sharing…

    Can this recipe be any more tastier and simple to make? I would love to replicate this with a variety of fruits like blueberries and pear.

    I would definitely use fresh apples for this, but I love the idea of this shaped pie. Easier to cut.
