Looking for a sensational summer dessert? Check out my pineapple cobbler recipe. Every bite is bursting with pineapple sweetness with a deliciously crumbly cobbler crust.
Do you love cobblers, whether it’s a strawberry, cherry, or peach cobbler? How about pineapple upside-down cake? Well, this pineapple cobbler takes the best of both desserts to make a scrumptious summer treat.
All you need is 6 ingredients to make this super easy pineapple cobbler recipe: baking mix, canned pineapple, brown sugar, flour, butter, and milk. Then it will be ready to eat in just a few simple steps. First, we have to make the pineapple filling and then the topping. In about 30 minutes it will be ready to eat.
There’s just something about the sweet pineapple combined with the deliciously buttery crust that sends my taste buds into overdrive! Fortunately, I’m not the only one who loves this recipe, so I regularly make pineapple cobbler every summer. To take it to the next level, serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Now let’s go ahead and make this beauty!
Recipe Ingredients
- Baking mix (such as Pioneer or Bisquick)
- Pineapple chunks (important that you have chunks here)
- Milk
- Brown sugar
- Flour
- Butter
How to Make Pineapple Cobbler
In a medium saucepot, place your butter and add in the juice from the cans of pineapple.
Also, add in your brown sugar and flour.
Stir that up well and bring just to a boil over medium heat while stirring constantly.
Stir that until it is all completely blended and thickened, with no lumps.
Then stir in your pineapple chunks.
Pour this into a baking dish. This will make enough for a 9×13 but I’m using a 9×9 baking dish and it will just be a little deeper.
In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar and baking mix.
Stir in milk.
Stir until the cobbler batter is smooth and creamy.
Pour batter evenly over the .
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the very center comes out clean (don’t stick the toothpick too far down, just about 1/2 an inch).
Please make this soon! Serve warm.
Storage
Store leftover cobbler in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and simply reheat in the microwave before serving.
Recipe Notes
To really emulate that pineapple upside-down cake flavor, you can totally fold 1 small jar of maraschino cherries into your filling.

Serve your pineapple cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Bonus points for adding a drizzle of caramel sauce. YUM!

Yes, you can use fresh pineapple chunks in your cobbler. However, the pineapple juice from the cans really enhances the filling’s delicious pineapple flavor, which is why I recommend using canned pineapple.

Tried this today and it was a HIT! My daughter said to replace her favorite cake with this cobbler for her birthday and my usually finicky husband, who never eats cobbler or cake, loved it! We almost ate the whole thing in one sitting Thanks for an excellent recipe guaranteed to be a family favorite for a long time to come.
Hi Christy I love your recipes I have a question I can not have baking mix do you know how I could use regular SR flour in place of the mix??
Thanks in advance!
Balinda
Hi Balinda! What is in the baking mix that you can’t have? That will help me to better find the right substitute for you.
I made this pineapple cobbler and used Libby’s skinny fruits pineapple chunks that are sweetened with Splenda. I used Splenda brown sugar in custard and the cake topping, fat free milk and real butter. Was soooooooooooooo good. I will make this again for sure. This is a great recipe. Thanks.
I am so glad to hear that you liked it Jean!!!
I love, love, love pineapple upside down cake and the good news is I have everything I need to make it, she said as she jumped up and down because this never happens. Hang on a minute. Ok, I looked and pigs are not flying but they should be. Thank you so very much for this recipe!!!! 🙂
LOL, I hope you enjoy it Ann!! I am so glad you had everything on hand and I can’t wait to hear what you think!
Back in the 60’s pineapple pie made in a regular shell, was popular, Back then the schools sold cookbooks with recipes from the home ec teachers from across the state of Alabama. Some treasured books, well stained and circled by my grandma. They also did a good many of the gelatin dishes, the only thing that does not appeal to me. One section is called Cakes Made with Fat. Makes me laugh every time. I actually did not see any recipes for cakes made without fat.
I will try your cobbler version sometime Christy. Looks delish! Thanks
