Cook: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups spice cake mix

1/4 cup (about 2 large) egg whites or fat-free liquid egg substitute

1/2 tsp. cinnamon, or more for topping

1/8 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

One 9-oz. container light whipped topping (thawed from frozen)

4 cups chopped apples

1 oz. (about 1/4 cup) chopped pecans

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray an 8”X8” baking pan with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, egg whites/substitute, and 1/2 cup water. Mix until smooth and uniform.

Transfer batter to the baking pan, and smooth out the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, 18–20 minutes.

Let cool completely, about 30 minutes in the pan and 30 minutes out of the pan on a cooling rack.

Cut cake into 1-inch cubes.

Add cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice to the whipped topping. Stir until uniform.

In a large glass bowl or trifle dish, layer half of the cake, half of the whipped topping, 2 cups apples, and 1/2 oz. (about 2 tbsp.) pecans. Repeat layering with remaining cake, whipped topping, 2 cups apples, and 1/2 oz. (about 2 tbsp.) pecans.
