Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 can 21 oz / 595 g cherry pie filling
- 1 box 15.25 oz / 432 g yellow cake mix
- ½ cup 115 g unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional) For extra flavor, optional
- Nonstick cooking spray For greasing the slow cooker
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (for serving, optional) For serving
Instructions
Preparation
- Lightly coat the inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker. If you like a little spice, sprinkle ground cinnamon over the filling.
- Evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the top of the fruit layer—do not stir.
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, ensuring most dry spots are moistened; small dry patches are okay.
Cooking
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours until the top is golden and the edges are slightly crisp.
Serving
- Spoon the warm dessert into bowls and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Notes
To store leftovers, let the dessert cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave before serving.
