Description

Peach Dump Cake is one of the easiest desserts you’ll ever make — and it tastes like a warm peach cobbler with a buttery cake topping! With just 4 simple ingredients, this no-fuss dessert is perfect for potlucks, family dinners, or when you’re craving something sweet in a hurry. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate comfort dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches in syrup (do not drain)
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Add Peaches: Pour both cans of peaches (with syrup) into the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly.
  3. Add Cake Mix: Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the peaches. Do not stir.
  4. Add Butter: Drizzle the melted butter evenly across the top of the cake mix.
  5. Add Cinnamon (Optional): Sprinkle cinnamon over the top for extra warmth and flavor.
  6. Bake: Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, add chopped pecans or walnuts on top before baking.
  • Use fresh peaches if desired — substitute with 4 cups sliced fresh peaches and ½ cup sugar.
  • You can swap yellow cake mix for white cake mix or spice cake mix for a fun twist.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave.
