Easy 3 Ingredient Cake Box Pie Filling
Just in time for the holidays, quite possibly the easiest, most versatile, amazingly delicious boxed cake mix hack ever to be discovered. I can't take credit for this, it's a basic hack I ran into while cruising the Internet—wait, I mean while doing exhaustive research!
I tried it. Again and again. I switched things up, came up with ways to hack the hack and well, it's amazing. And did I say easy? It's almost scary, like how can this work? But it does. And as a bonus, this is super budget-friendly, especially when the ingredients are on sale.
3-Ingredient Cake
- 1 cake mix
- 1 can pie filling
- 3 eggs
That's it. Mix and match your choice of cake mix with pie filling, dump both plus 3 eggs in a mixing bowl, mix, pour into a bundt pan, loaf pan, or baking pan of choice, bake it, and there you go. Amazing!
My first attempt I used a white cake mix and canned peach pie filling. Amazing! Perfect ratio, moist, and super delicious according to my discriminating, dessert-friendly husband.

1. Cake mix is an ingredient in this recipe. Ignore the ingredients required on the back of the box.
2. Canned pie filling comes in 15 oz. , 20 oz., and also 21 oz. sizes depending on the brand, etc. This recipe works best the larger size, which measure out at about 2 1/3 cups of canned pie filling.
3. If going for a pumpkin cake, make sure you are using "pumpkin pie filling" or "pumpkin pie mix," NOT pumpkin puree, which has not been tested. Not saying it might work, but you're on your own there 🙂
4. While sour cream or vegetable oil are optional, either (I wouldn't use both in the same cake) will give a very moist and lovely result. However, neither are necessary to make a great 3-ingredient cake!
