Did you ever think a dump was a good thing? Well now it is! Get ready for a super easy and especially delightful Pineapple Dump Cake!
I’m sure you’ve seen thousands of different dump cakes all over the internet. And really, you can whip up just about any combination your heart desires.
For me this summer, light and refreshing is the way to go. So, with that in mind, I was thinking of the perfect flavor combination to create a quick and easy cake for my family to enjoy. One that they would really like!
If you know my boys, you will know that they love dessert. And dessert just about any time of the day!
And if you know my boys, you will also know that they are extremely picky! They are known to not eat the things I post on this site.
Can you believe that! Well, seems like this is also true with other food bloggers — they create wonderful treats, and end up having to bring them to work or share them with friends as their families will not go near them.
Well, let me just say that this Pineapple Dump Cake was a huge it with the boys! Yeah! It’s super easy to make after dinner for a lip-smacking, satisfying dessert. And usually in the summer, I really hate turning on my oven — however I did cave in for this one.
The outcome, a refreshingly tangy treat. The sweet, juicy pineapple along with the unbeatable flavor of creamy vanilla cake mix topped with a crunchy and bubbling melted butter topping, turned into one sensational combination. I was in awe with every bite — and there were a lot!
Pineapple Dump Cake
By: Sheila | Sweet Baked Life
Ingredients:
1 package yellow cake mix
1 can (20 oz) Dole Pineapple Chunks in 100% Juice
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
Instructions:
Heat your oven to 350 degrees.
Pour pineapples and juice into a 13×9-inch baking dish (I used an oval dish for mine). Sprinkle the cake mix on top creating an even layer. Drizzle the melted butter over the top. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until cake is slightly golden and pineapples are bubbling.
Cool slightly on a rack (about 15 minutes), then cut and serve. This dessert is best served warm!
Do yourself a favor, whip up this super simple, super delicious Pineapple Dump Cake for your family tonight! And don’t sweat the heat, the outcome will be worth it!

The first I’ve heard of a dump cake Sheila – looks delicious!
Thanks Laura, it’s so good!!!!
Did not have brown sugar for upside down cake, so this is perfect!!!
Thanks Michelle! 🙂
I used some brown sugar with the juice just not put it in oven looks really good
I have made this so many times. I add more than 1/2 cup of butter. I usually use 1 stick and 1/2 of butter. We also like a little bit of Crust on the top, so I put it under the broiler until it is slightly brown. This recipe is so easy and so delicious and the family Loves it.
Ohh, that sounds so good! I love the idea to put it in the broiler to form a crust. Thanks for sharing!
