Cherry Dump Cake
It really couldn't be any easier to make this cherry dump cake recipe! With canned cherry pie filling and box cake mix, it's quick yet totally delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 can cherry pie filling or 4 cups of homemade cherry pie filling
- 1 box yellow or white cake mix
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp carob fruit syrup or agave syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
- Optional toppings: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. If your filling is a little too tart (taste test to find out!), then stir through the brown sugar
- Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the cherry filling. Do not stir; let it sit on top!
- Pour the melted butter and carob syrup over the top of the cake mix. Make sure to cover as much of the cake mix as possible for even baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and bubbly. The edges may be slightly crisp, which is perfect!
- Let the dump cake cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
