Blueberry Dump Cake

The Blueberry Dump Cake is a simple baked dessert layering canned blueberry pie filling with dry vanilla cake mix and topped with pieces of unsalted butter. Its characteristic 'dump' preparation requires no mixing bowls—just layering ingredients and baking until golden. The cake develops a moist, fruity base with a tender, buttery crumb topping, offering a comforting balance of sweet fruit and cake textures. It can be served warm with ice cream or whipped cream for added richness.

Description

This Blueberry Dump Cake starts by spreading blueberry pie filling in a greased 9x13 pan then sprinkling dry vanilla cake mix evenly on top. Pieces of butter are scattered over the surface so the cake develops a golden layer as it bakes. The baking time of about 60 minutes allows the filling to bubble around the tender, cakey topping. The straightforward layering method requires minimal preparation.

The resulting dessert offers moist, fruity flavors complemented by a soft cake texture enhanced by the buttery richness. It is commonly served warm with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, making it suitable for family dinners or casual gatherings.

The recipe notes that yellow or lemon-flavored cake mixes can be substituted for vanilla, and leftovers can be refrigerated for 3-4 days or frozen for up to three months when well wrapped. Reheating gently preserves moisture and texture. The convenience of this dump cake makes it suitable for make-ahead occasions.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 (21-ounce) cans blueberry pie filling
  • 1 (15-18-ounce) box vanilla cake mix
  • cup butter unsalted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan.
  2. Pour/spoon both cans of blueberry pie filling into the pan and spread the top smooth.
  3. Sprinkle the cake mix on top.
  4. Cut the butter into small pieces and place them on top of the cake mix, so that the majority of the cake mix is covered.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the top starts to look golden brown.
  6. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.
