Preparation

Step 1

Combine pie filling and extract in a small bowl; set aside.

Spread cake slices lightly on one side with butter. Place one cake slice butter-side down in a cast-iron pie iron; top with one to 2 tablespoons pie filling and a second cake slice, butter-side up. Close pie iron; cook over a grill or campfire until toasted and heated through, 4 to 6 minutes.

Sprinkle pie with powdered sugar; repeat with remaining cake and pie filling.
