1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.

Spread the crushed pineapple (including the juice) evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

3

Spoon the cherry pie filling evenly over the pineapple layer, spreading it gently to cover.

4

Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the fruit layers, ensuring complete coverage.

5

Drizzle the melted butter evenly across the top of the cake mix. Try to cover as much of the dry mix as possible.

6

Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly on top of the butter-covered cake mix.

7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
