Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 cups blueberries fresh
  • 1 21 oz blueberry pie filling
  • 1 box cake mix yellow
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter sliced into pats
  • ½ tsp nutmeg ground (optional)
  • 1 tbsp sugar granulated (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  • Pour the can of blueberry pie filling evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • In a separate bowl, gently toss the fresh blueberries with the optional tablespoon of sugar if desired. Spread the fresh blueberries evenly over the canned blueberry filling.
  • Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the layer of blueberries. If using cinnamon or nutmeg, sprinkle it over the cake mix as well.
  • Arrange the cold butter pats evenly over the top of the dry cake mix. The melting butter will create a wonderfully textured topping.
  • For an extra burst of fresh flavor and visual appeal, you can sprinkle an additional cup of fresh blueberries over the butter pats. This allows some berries to bake right into the topping.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges. The baking time might be a little longer due to the fresh fruit.
  • Let the dump cake cool for at least 15-20 minutes before serving. This allows the blueberry juices to thicken slightly and prevents the topping from being too crumbly.
