Homemade Dump Cake With Peaches, Blueberries, and Pecans

它为我工作!我用6杯新鲜的水果- - - rhubarb, strawberries (quartered), and blueberries. Didn't flour the pan but buttered well, shook the pan as directed (fruit is obviously a thick layer), used 500 grams of gluten free white cake mix distributed very evenly, and then the 3/4 cup of butter cubed into probably 80-100 small cubes and placed again, very evenly. The result was a hit! I baked it a tad longer and served within 2 hours. I am glad I didn't read all the reviews where it didn't work before tackling this!

This simply does not turn out the way you imagine. Huge NO. Waste of time and money.

昨晚做了这个简单的把蛋糕gathering of school friends. I had fresh peaches & pecans from Georgia as well as yummy, sweet blueberries from Michigan. While I've never made a dump cake before, I'm DEFINITELY making another one - and probably this one. It turned out fabulous! Everyone was raving about how divine it was.

I've had good success with this recipe. It isn't really a "cake", if that's what people are looking for, but it is fast and easy and a bit like a crumble. I think you need to hew to the recipe exactly--not subbing, e.g., canned or fresh peaches.

For those of you who don't like the connotation of Dump Cake - There is at least one book you can buy that is called Dump Cakes. There are many varieties and most of them are literally dumped into the baking pan, one ingredient on top of another - no premixing required - and they are delicious!!

An answer about Dump Cakes - especially to pwurple of Ireland - They are exactly that. You literally dump all the ingredients into the baking pan in the order they are given. Do not stir them up! That defeats the purpose.My first dump cake was a can of crushed pineapple (including the juiceand a can of cherry pie filling, very lightly mixed together in a 13 x 9 cake pan. Sprinkle either yellow cake mix or chocolate cake mix over the fruit. Put 1/4 lb of butter cut into small pieces dotted evenly over the top. Sprinkle top with pecans or nut of your choice and bake at 350 f for 35-40 minutes. If using regular canned peaches, you need to include the juices from the can. That substitutes for eggs.

I made this two ways, first with the dry mix as written, and a second time with cake batter including 3 eggs and butter mixed through in the dish first, with a layer of the fruit on top. I used canned peaches and frozen raspberries. This recipe NEEDS EGGS. I'm convinced it's a recipe error. It was a burnt mess of dry flour bits and gooey fruit without eggs. With eggs, it's lovely soft cake, and the fruit sinks in through it. It's nice also with some scattered almonds on top then baked, dusted with powdered sugar and served warm from the oven with fresh cream. And... ahem... I don't know what 'dump' means in american english, but this side of the atlantic, it's something you do in the toilet! Not what I'd title a recipe. ;)

Made 3 variations for a church luncheon tomorrow - canned mandarin oranges, frozen strawberries and frozen blueberries. From the oven only the orange version appears to be edible. I added baking time, but the frozen fruit varieties didn't bake correctly. The cake batter didn't rise or mix with the fruit properly and the butter pooled on top. Wasted ingredients and still have to find desserts to make.

Followed the directions to the letter but used box cake mix. Terrible results. At the end, cake mix will still uncooked, on the top.

Don't put the eggs in when you make a dump cake, right? Just the yellow cake mix recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly and ended up with a gooey mess. I didn't thaw the peaches. Maybe if the oven were a little hotter

I was a bit skeptical based on other reviews, however I followed the recipe exactly and it was so good that I made it again the next night for another group of friends. Instead of frozen peaches, I only had a bag of frozen mixed berries and some fresh blueberries. I also used the very easy cake mix that was recommended. I was surprised that I wasn't adding any liquid ingredients, but I guess that the water from the frozen fruit and the melted butter does the job. I've added this to my recipe box.

Never again! Cubed butter on top of dried ingredients does not guarantee a batter. After 45 minutes, I'm left with flour patches and lots of doubts about eating this. Stick to crisps, crumbles, or cobblers for your fruit desserts!
