ingredients

2 cans (21 ounce size) cherry pie filling
1 package (16 ounce size) yellow cake mix, stirred with a fork to break up any clumps of mix
1 can (12 ounce size) 7-up

directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Pour the cherry pie filling in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Sprinkle the cake mix (dry) evenly over the top of the pie filling.

Slowly pour the 7-up over the cake mix.

Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees F.

Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

recipe tips


Do not stir the cake mix and soda together; just pour the soda SLOWLY over the top.

Try sprinkling cinnamon or nutmeg over the cake mix before adding the soda.

Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

For a crisper top, bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes before serving as it will be very hot.

Try adding a layer of nuts or coconut between the pie filling and cake mix.

If the cobbler is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.

Try serving with a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra decadent touch.

Always preheat the oven for the best baking results.

Sprinkle a handful of milk or white chocolate chips over the top during the last 15 minutes of the baking time.

common recipe questions


Can I use a different type of pie filling?

Yes, you can use any fruit pie filling such as apple, blueberry, or peach.

What can I use instead of yellow cake mix?

A white cake mix, chocolate cake mix, or even a spice cake mix can be used for a different flavor.

Is there a substitute for 7-Up?

You can use any clear soda like Sprite or ginger ale.

Can I make this dessert without a cake mix?

This particular recipe relies on cake mix, but you can make a cobbler topping from scratch with flour, sugar, and butter. But, that's really outside the realm of this particular recipe. You can look at our other cobbler recipes.

How do I store and reheat leftovers?

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or microwave.

Can this dessert be frozen?

Store the cooled cobbler in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw before reheating in the oven.

    Just tried this a second time. I used most of a 20 oz bottle of 7up and I added chocolate chips. The chips seemed to help moisten all the dry mix by keeping it under the soda. I extended baking time to 75 minutes. And I substituted double chocolate cake mix. Kinda decadent, but WoW! Everybody loved it.

    Made this today with 3 groups of residents and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. I held my breath because it was necessary to use a gluten free cake mix for one of the groups but it turned out wonderful. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

    I found if you gently mix the soda into the cake mix, then spoon it over your pie filling it will come out beautifully. If it does not cook throughly, cover with aluminum foil and bake another 10 minutes

    I used 1 can of blueberry pie filling mixed with 1 can of apple pie filling. I used a pastry cutter to break up any clumps in cake mix before sprinkling on top. Then poured the 7 Up over as directed. When done, there was still dry cake mix in places on top. I had to do the taste test before serving to guests. It tasted good but the appearance left a lot to be desired.

    Turned out great...but there was a few dry cake mix in some spots

  6. Rob July 20, 2020

    I am going to make this tomorrow. This sounds good.

  7. Billie REVIEW:
    July 16, 2020

    This was pretty good, no complaints from the hubs. You can definitely tell the difference between the butter version dump cake and 7-Up. But that made it healthier in my book haha!

  8. Guest Foodie June 7, 2020

    I wonder if this would work with lemon pie filling

  9. Guest Foodie REVIEW:
    May 31, 2020

    I made this today. It turned out great. I did add Almond extract and I baked it for about 1 hr 10 min . All ovens are different. I used a 9x13 dish

  10. Scamp REVIEW:
    April 18, 2020

    Tried this in a 8x8 as I only had one can, worked very well. No complaints from wife or kids, I’m trying it with blueberries next!

  11. Dee April 11, 2020

    As I’m not much of a baker, anyone feel that this would work with apple filling and ginger ale?

    • CDKitchen Staff Reply:

      Yes, that combination should work.

  12. Cindy Wenzel REVIEW:
    March 20, 2020

    Aweful,what a waste of ingredients. So upset. No lumps, the 7up didn’t mix in with the cake mix. Flat top brown,just under that was raw cake mix.

    • CDKitchen Staff Reply:

      Not sure why it wouldn't bake through then. Maybe the type of cake mix? Maybe you needed to cook it longer? This recipe works but there must be some common factor among the few that have had issues with it.

  13. Kmb REVIEW:
    March 4, 2020

    Ugh! So upset! Cooked it for 60 minutes! It looked brown and bubbly and when I went to serve it the cake mix was dry underneath. What did I do wrong?

    • CDKitchen Staff Reply:

      Was the cake mix clumpy when you sprinkled it on? That could do it.

  14. Karen REVIEW:
    December 29, 2019

    This recipe looked so easy....BUT!!! The can of soda did not mix in with the cake mix!!! The soda just rolled over the cake mix. When it came out of the oven, there were white powdery spots of cake mix on the top!!! I tried to brush them off but they were also under the surface!! I would not recommend this recipe!!!

  15. Cherry September 24, 2019

    My name is really Cherry . I'm doing something wrong I've tried two and they're still dry cake mix AlI over the top in spots. And the cake just stays on top and cherries on bottom. Some looks like cobbler but most don't what am I doing wrong??

  16. redrum REVIEW:
    August 28, 2019

    How have I not seen this recipe before! So easy and came in super handy for a last minute dessert. Everyone gobbled it up.

  17. Guest Foodie April 19, 2019

    Can you use other pie filling? Not crazy about cherry.

    • CDKitchen Staff Reply:

      Yes, other flavors will work fine.

  18. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

  19. Yvonne REVIEW:
    February 20, 2019

    Made this last week - picture shows a square dish but recipe calls for 9 x 13! Mine did require longer baking time, next time I will keep it in until lightly browned.

  20. TJ REVIEW:
    November 11, 2018

    I mixed 1/4 tsp almond extract with the cherries. It was sooo good!

  23. Anonymous REVIEW:
    August 15, 2016

    Served it to family. Told them it was all from scratch and they believed me but couldn't believe I actually made something from scratch. Finally told them the "secret" ingredients. They actually were surprised that it wasn't from scratch because it was soo good.

    November 29, 2014

    My diabetic brother was visiting, so I used low sugar fruit and mix with diet Sprite. He loved it and I couldn't tell the difference!

  25. Autism mom REVIEW:

  26. FanaticMomma REVIEW:
    October 28, 2013

    Mix the pie filling with 1 tsp vanilla extract first. It makes a difference.

  28. Wizzy REVIEW:
    July 9, 2013

    This is one of those recipes that makes you wonder how someone came up with it! It's so simple but you end up with a really tasty dessert. I use a low-sugar cherry pie filling and diet 7up. I've also made this with chocolate cake mix and cola for sort of a black forest version.

  29. woman81 REVIEW:
    January 19, 2012

    we loved it. simple, cheap, and easily integrates substitutions. u could use jiffy cake mix or a bigger more expensive brand

  30. 7-Up Quick Cobbler REVIEW:
    June 12, 2011

    A great alternative to this recipe is to use fresh or frozen berries. You can also use sugar free cake mix and diet 7-Up, Sprite, or Fresca to make a great diabetic or less calorie version. You absolutely will never know it's diet! This recipe rivals the traditional cobbler! Serve with a scoop of ice cream on top.

  31. barbie November 20, 2010

    This cake did not cook through in the 45 min. that the recipe called for. We cooked for 1/2 an hour more.

FAQs

Why is my peach cobbler not cooking? ›

Mistake: Baking at too high of a temperature

Cobblers need enough time in the oven for the topping to cook through and brown, but at too high a temperature, anything above 375 ℉, the fruit filling might not be cooked by the time the top is burnt.

What temperature is a cobbler done? ›

A probe thermometer inserted in the center of the cobbler should reach 200°F in the thickest part of the topping. The filling should be bubbly around the sides, and the tops of the biscuits should be more deep amber than golden.

Why is my cobbler still raw in the middle? ›

Not cooking it long enough.

A probe thermometer inserted in the center of the cobbler should reach 200°F in the thickest part of the topping. The filling should be bubbly around the sides, and the tops of the biscuits should be more deep amber than golden.

Why is my cobbler so doughy? ›

Too often, the biscuit topping will mix with the syrupy filling and result in a doughy texture throughout the entire dish. To avoid this mishap, you can try hot water as an easy addition for crisp cobbler crust. It may sound counterintuitive to add liquid to a recipe to promote crispness, but it works. Trust us.

Can you overcook cobbler? ›

(bakers tip: it's pretty hard to overcook a cobbler, so don't be afraid to leave it in there for longer than 30 minutes - if the top is browning too quickly and the juices still aren't running clear, tent the crisp with foil and continue baking.) Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

How do you tell if a cobbler is done? ›

Use your probe thermometer! According to Kitchn, when the center of your cobbler reaches 200 degrees F, it's done. Since you have a tool that ensures your cobbler is cooked through, there's one more tip that will make your cobbler experience even better. Let your cobbler rest for a bit before serving.

How long do cobblers usually take? ›

Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and peach filling is bubbling around the edges. To test for doneness, stick a toothpick into the biscuit topping and if it comes out clean, it's done. Remove cobbler from the oven, and set the pan on a wire rack. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

How do you know when peach cobbler is done cooking? ›

You take a clean tooth pick and poke it into the batter section of the cobbler. If the toothpick comes out clean, it's done. If there's raw batter clinging to it, bake it for a bit longer. This is the same thing you do when testing to see if a cake is done.

Does peach cobbler thicken as it cools? ›

Let the peach cobbler cool.

I know it's going to be difficult to wait, but you have to wait at least half an hour to give the cobbler a little time to set up so the syrup can thicken and the peaches won't burn your tongue with the first bite. Serve with vanilla ice cream when ready.
