Now on the list as one of our favorite easy dump cake recipes! (originally published 2/18, affiliate links present)

Blueberry Cupcakes

We are all too familiar with the traditional dump cake recipe but I like this method better. It’s lighter and rises much more than previous recipes we’ve tried.

They were so delicious, moist, and only took about 5 minutes to put together before throwing them into the oven to rise.

You could easily use other types of pie filling like cherry but my very favorite pie, cake, pastry, and fruit in general is blueberry. I am sure we will continue on with the others in the future since this one turned out so well. 😉

We started fooling with the “old fashioned” dump cake idea when we got our pressure cooker and made this yummy Instant Pot dump cake. We used apple pie filling for that one and it was really yummy!

I kept thinking because I thought it would be even easier if I could transfer that idea into cupcakes.

Even better, using mini cupcake pan so you could pop them into your mouth. I mean what a yummy breakfast or dessert right? They were a real hit.

Yep, this is what you’re going to need. If you’ve made a dump cake in the past you typically don’t use eggs, rather you use butter.

I found that those came out really flat and didn’t rise very much at all no matter what device you were cooking them in.

I prefer my baked goods to rise and be fluffy so I knew substituting eggs for that butter would probably do the trick and they did!

Blueberry pie filling dump cake cupcakes

1. Cake mix – I used white, you could use really any flavor or brand
2. Pie filling – used this blueberry filling but you could use another fruit or make your own homemade pie filling to use
3. Eggs
4. If making mini cupcakes like we did you’ll need these tiny cupcake liners

Don’t already have a mini muffin pan? this is the one I love

Same method you see here with this easy blueberry pie filling dump cake. I suggest you make those brownies after this with cherry, they’re winners too.

Here’s the link to make these moist cherry brownies and then use apple for air fryer dumplings.
