Ingredients

Ingredient Amount
Sweet potatoes in syrup, drained 2 cans (29 oz each)
Yellow cake mix 1 box (15.25 oz)
Unsalted butter, melted ½ cup

Directions

  1. Lightly grease a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Arrange the drained sweet potatoes evenly across the bottom, gently breaking apart any large pieces for an even layer.
  2. Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the sweet potatoes. Do not stir.
  3. Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix, covering as much of the surface as possible.
  4. Cover and cook on High for 2–3 hours or Low for 4–5 hours, until the topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
  5. Turn off the slow cooker and let the cobbler rest for 10–15 minutes before serving.
  6. Spoon into bowls and enjoy warm on its own or topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a splash of cream.
