1. Prepare the Slow Cooker:
- Lightly grease the insert of your 1.5-quart slow cooker.
2. Layer the Ingredients:
- Spoon the entire can of blueberry pie filling into the bottom of the greased slow cooker. Spread it out into an even layer.
- Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix directly from the package (use amount for a 9oz package, or about 1.5-2 cups from a larger box) as evenly as possible over the top of the blueberry pie filling.
- Sprinkle the ¼ cup of chopped pecans evenly over the dry cake mix layer.
- Drizzle the ¼ cup of melted butter as evenly as possible over the pecans and cake mix. Do not stir the layers together.
3. Slow Cook the Cobbler:
- Cover the slow cooker securely with its lid.
- Cook on the HIGH setting for 3 hours. (Some slow cooker cobblers also offer a LOW setting for 4-5 hours, but this recipe specifies HIGH).
- The cobbler is done when the fruit filling is bubbly around the edges and the topping is mostly set and appears golden brown in spots. A toothpick inserted into the topping should come out with moist crumbs, but not wet batter.
4. Serve:
- Turn off the slow cooker.
- Serve the Blueberry Cobbler warm, scooped directly from the slow cooker into bowls.
- If desired, top individual servings with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy this incredibly easy and comforting dessert!
