17 Summer Dump Cakes That Literally Couldn’t Be Easier to Throw Together

Unfortunate as the name “dump cake” might be, summer dump cake recipes are great when you need a last-minute dessert—or when you just don’t have many ingredients available. True to their name, dump cakes are made by dumping cake mix into a baking dish with things like canned pie filling, butter, chocolate and other mix-ins. There’s usually no mixing required—just dump your ingredients into the baking dish in layers, then bake everything off.

Because dump cake recipes generally call for canned pie filling instead of fresh fruit, they’re not exactly seasonal. (You can buy canned fruit any time of year, obviously.) But, pie filling make with summer fruits like berries and peaches is excellent, and dump cakes made with these fillings totally taste like summer.

The recipes below are great for beginner baker, or for when you’re baking with kids. Because you dump everything into a baking dish without mixing it in a bowl first, the clean-up is minimal. And because many dump cake recipes only call for three ingredients, they’re an easy add-on to summer party menus. So what are you waiting for? Get to dumping. (I know, I know—it’ll never sound right.)
