Description
This Pumpkin Dump Cake is an easy, delicious dessert with layers of spiced pumpkin filling, buttery cake mix, and crunchy pecans. It’s the perfect fall treat with all the flavors of pumpkin pie and the texture of a cobbler!
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin purée
- 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup (6 oz) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (4 oz) brown sugar
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
- 1 cup (8 oz) unsalted butter, melted
- ¾ cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, evaporated milk, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture, making sure to cover the entire surface. Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top. If using, sprinkle chopped pecans over the buttered cake mix.
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set. Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for the perfect fall dessert!
Notes
- Use spice cake mix instead of yellow cake mix for extra fall flavor.
- Swap pecans for walnuts or omit them for a nut-free version.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
