Ingredients

  • Canned peaches: Provide juicy sweetness and a ready-made filling; substitute fresh sliced peaches with syrup.
  • Yellow cake mix: Creates an effortless golden topping; substitute white cake mix.
  • Butter: Gives the topping rich flavor and crisp edges; substitute plant-based butter.
  • Cinnamon: Adds warm spice to the peaches; substitute pumpkin pie spice.
  • Brown sugar: Adds caramel-like sweetness; substitute granulated sugar.
  • Pecans: Add delicious crunch; substitute chopped walnuts or omit them.

Preparation & Cooking

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Add the Peaches

Pour the canned peaches and their syrup evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar over the fruit.

Step 3: Add the Cake Mix

Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the entire surface of the peaches. Do not stir the layers together.

Step 4: Add the Butter

Slice the butter into thin pieces and arrange them evenly across the cake mix. Try to cover as much of the surface as possible.

Step 5: Add the Pecans

Sprinkle chopped pecans evenly over the top if using. This adds a delicious nutty crunch.

Step 6: Bake and Serve

Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges. Let it cool for about 10 minutes, then serve warm.

Serving Ideas

  • Vanilla ice cream
  • Whipped cream
  • Caramel sauce
  • Fresh peach slices
  • Powdered sugar

Storage

Store leftover Peach Dump Cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm the entire dish in a 325°F (165°C) oven.

Tips

  • Spread the cake mix evenly so the topping bakes consistently.
  • Don't mix the cake mix into the peaches; the layers create the signature texture.
  • Distribute butter evenly across the surface for better browning.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for the best combination of textures.

Conclusion

With minimal preparation and everyday ingredients, it's ideal for last-minute gatherings and busy family dinners. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoy this easy, comforting peach dessert straight from the oven.
