Make a Blueberry Peach Dump Cake for your next party – this EASY cake has just 5 ingredients and everyone loves it!
Serve this room temperature or warm with lots of vanilla ice cream. This cake travels well too, so it’s perfect for a potluck!
This easy dessert takes a fruit filling – in this case, perfect summer peaches and blueberries – and just “dumps” cake mix on top of it for a treat that’s one part cake, one part cobbler, all parts tasty. And don’t worry— we’re not using a boxed cake mix. Oh no. Every bit of this dish is homemade, and every bit is delicious. Check it out.
When you’re making a dump cake, the best part is there is no mixing bowl. You just need the pan you’re going to bake the cake in, usually a casserole dish or a 9×13-inch pan. You literally dump the can of pie filling and fruit into the pan, and then dump the cake mix on top.
You may wonder how the cake mix turns into a crumble from just pie filling – and that’s because of the main ingredient: Butter. Glorious, glorious butter.
For a lot of us, we can’t quite get over the habit of taking a mental break during the months between the end of one school year and the beginning of another, even if it’s been years since we stepped into a classroom. So what does this relaxed state mean for learning new recipes? Just that we’re leaning toward creative takes on the classics, recipes that really let the ingredients shine— and toward ones that are really easy! You can’t do any better on all three criteria than with a dump cake!
DUMP CAKES ARE THE PERFECT MARRIAGE OF CAKE AND COBBLER, PAIRED WITH YOUR FAVORITE FRUIT. BLUEBERRY PEACH DUMP CAKE IS THE PERFECT FRUIT CRISP FOR SUMMER!
Here’s the thing about making dessert in the summer. On the one hand, we want to take every opportunity we can to enjoy the season’s bounty and make the most of those fresh-picked fruits from farmers’ markets, roadside stands, and local orchards and farms. On the other hand? They don’t call them the “lazy hazy days of summer” for nothing!

INGREDIENTS
¾ cup unsalted butter, sliced, plus more for pan
All-purpose flour, for pan
1 pound sliced frozen peaches, partially thawed
1 pint fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar
¼ cup peach juice or nectar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Homemade Yellow Cake Mix or 1 – 16-ounce box store-bought cake mix
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup pecans, chopped
HOMEMADE YELLOW CAKE MIX
1-¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup minus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon kosher salt
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Butter and flour a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking dish.
Arrange the peaches and blueberries in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the sugar, peach juice and vanilla over the fruit. Stir just to mix.
If using Homemade Yellow Cake Mix: In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Dump over the fruit. If using store-bought cake mix: Dump the contents of the box over the fruit.
Sprinkle cinnamon over the top and shake gently to evenly distribute.
Top the whole dish with the sliced butter and chopped pecans.
Bake the cake for 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your oven, until the surface springs back to the touch, and the cake is set and golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
