Dump cakes are one of the easiest desserts you can make. Just layer the ingredients in a baking dish, slow cooker, or other pan, and let everything bake into a warm, comforting treat. With minimal prep and simple ingredients, these recipes deliver big flavor without a lot of work. From fruity cobblers and buttery crumbles to classic cake-style desserts, there’s a dump cake for every occasion. If you love easy desserts that practically make themselves, these recipes are sure to become favorites.
Blackstone Apple Cobbler
If you’ve only been using your flat top for burgers and breakfast, this recipe is about to change everything. The Blackstone’s high, even heat caramelizes the cinnamon-spiced apples beautifully and gives the buttery crumble topping those irresistible golden edges. It’s my favorite way to serve a cozy fall dessert to a crowd while keeping the kitchen completely cool.
Instant Pot Blueberry Cobbler
The Instant Pot might not be the first thing you think of for cobbler, but once you try this, you’ll be a total convert. The pressure cooking keeps everything incredibly moist and tender, and those sweet blueberries bubble up into the most gorgeous filling. My family absolutely raves about this one every single time I make it.
Air Fryer Strawberry Cobbler
Strawberries deserve way more cobbler love, and this recipe is proof. A simple dough gets spooned right over fresh, sweet berries and the air fryer takes it to golden, bubbling perfection in just about 15 minutes. Serve it warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream melting over the top — pure heaven.
Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler
Using canned cinnamon rolls as a cobbler topping is one of my all-time favorite kitchen hacks, and this peach version is the recipe that started it all. That spiced, pillowy dough bakes up golden and gooey over sweet peaches in just 10 minutes flat. It’s a quick, easy dessert that always gets rave reviews from everyone at the table.
Ninja Creami Apple Cobbler Ice Cream
Why choose between cobbler and ice cream when you can have both at the same time?
