Ingredients

  • 8 to 9 ounces yellow cake mix see Note
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 7x11-inch baking dish.
  • Spread pineapple evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Top with berries.
  • Sprinkle cake mix evenly over the top.
  • Scatter pecans over cake mix.
  • Drizzle melted butter evenly over the top. Let sit for a few minutes to allow the butter to seep into the cake mix a bit.
  • Bake for 1 hour, or until bubbly and topping is a nice golden brown.

Notes

Berries: Can also substitute frozen berries, or 1 can of apple, cherry or blueberry pie filling.
Make ahead: Cobbler can be made earlier in the day, covered and held at room temperature.
Yellow cake mix: If using Jiffy brand, one 9-ounce package is perfect. Most other brands come in a 15 to 16-ounce package, so use half.
