Lemon Pineapple Dump Cake

A wonderfully simple dessert bursting with tropical flavors, combining sweet pineapple and tangy lemon curd with a light, crumbly cake topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 20 ounces crushed pineapple with juice
  • 1 cup pineapple tidbits or diced pineapple chunks
  • 12 ounces lemon curd
  • 1 package yellow cake mix (approximately 15.25 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup salted butter, cold

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Spread the crushed pineapple evenly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  3. Layer the pineapple tidbits or diced pineapple chunks over the crushed pineapple.
  4. Spoon the lemon curd over the pineapple mixture, gently spreading it to cover the fruit.
  5. Evenly sprinkle the yellow cake mix over the pineapple and lemon curd layers, ensuring full coverage.
  6. Slice the cold salted butter into thin pats and distribute them evenly over the cake mix.
  7. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the topping is nicely browned and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
  8. Allow the dump cake to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a golden and crisp topping, consider increasing the baking time slightly. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days and freeze up to 2 months.
