Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Mixed Fruit Dump Cake

I love an easy dessert. And so does my family. Well...they just like dessert. I'm not sure they really care how easy it is. Ha! Using dry cake mixes as a base for a dessert like this makes the whole thing easier, I think. The nice thing about THIS little treat is that you can use just about any kind of fruit you like. I had mixed fruit in my freezer but fresh would work too. Peaches would be marvelous! Serve it warm with ice cream for an over the top experience!

Mixed Fruit Dump Cake



6 cups fruit (I used frozen peaches, raspberries, blackberries and strawberries)
1 12-ounce can evaporated milk
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 white cake mix
1/3 cup sliced almonds
3/4 cup butter ~ melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine the evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, and cinnamon. Stir with a whisk until blended.

Stir in the fruit.

Pour mixture into the prepared pan.

Sprinkle DRY cake mix over the top of the fruit mixture then scatter the almonds on top.

Drizzle with the melted butter. 

Bake for 40 - 45 minutes until golden brown. 

Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
