Continue on with much success!

Making this again for Sunday dessert. This is super easy and wonderfully delicious! I use Raspberry Pie Filling instead of Blueberry..I think the Raspberry compliments the pineapple beautifully. I also substituted Walnuts for the Pecans. Love the crunch the nuts add to this yummy concoction. This is a winner! Thanks Paula! ![]()

This is a great recipe. I have been making this type of cake for years, especially when we go camping or up north fishing. It is simple, easy, and really good, either with whipped cream, cool whip, or my favorite Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. My family calls it Dump Cake because you just dump everything into one pan and bake. If camping we use a Cast Iron Dutch Oven and place the pot on the hot coals of a camp fire. Learned it from the Boy Scouts about 40 years ago. Used this recipe for summer camp for the Campfire Girls too. We use what ever pie filling we like and the crushed pineapple topping. If you use cherry pie filling it is really good with chocolate cake mix and walnuts or pecans. Love to the Deen Family.

Paula I watch your show often. My mother-in-law wrote down this recipe for your crunch cake and left out the size of cans to use. I searched to find it and was successful. Will be back to comment after I make it tomorrow. Thank you for your great recipes.

This sounds so good, but my daughter is allergic to nuts. :( Is there a good substitution for the pecans that would still give us the crunch?
By Dianna Pindell on June 20, 2012

Cherry pie filling works great with this recipe
By chad on November 17, 2011
I made this for a family reunion recently and everyone raved about it!! It is similar to a "dump cake" recipe that was popular a few years ago which used cherry pie filling. This is another PD A++ recipe!!

In my home my husband does all of the cooking and he does a great job. I seen this crunch cake on the Paula Deen Show and was able to mix it up to perfection. It's great topped with vanilla ice cream. Thanks for the easy recipe! Nancy Convertino
