Are you craving a fruity dessert? Something that looks and tastes fresh and homemade, but takes minimal effort? A dump cake might be for you. Don’t be put off by the name. This quick and casual slow-cooker dessert is the perfect low-key dessert for when you don’t want to go to the store. Just dump everything in, and let the slow-cooker take it from there.

If you’re not a fan of peaches and blueberry, you could easily substitute those with your favorite frozen fruits or whatever you have in your freezer. A berry medley would work, and so would frozen cherries. Get creative!
