Ingredients

• 2 cans sliced peaches in syrup (15 oz each)
• 1 box yellow cake mix
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker

Lightly spray the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray or grease it with butter. This helps prevent sticking and makes cleanup easier.

Step 2: Add the Peaches

Pour both cans of sliced peaches directly into the slow cooker, including the syrup. The syrup keeps the dessert moist and creates a delicious sweet peach sauce while cooking.

If you like extra flavor, stir in the vanilla extract at this stage.

Step 3: Add the Cake Mix

Open the box of yellow cake mix and sprinkle the dry mix evenly over the peaches. Try to cover the fruit completely.

Important: Do not stir the layers together. Keeping the layers separate helps create the perfect dump cake texture.

Step 4: Add the Butter

Slowly drizzle the melted butter over the top of the dry cake mix. Try to cover as much of the surface as possible so the topping cooks evenly and becomes golden and buttery.

Sprinkle cinnamon over the top for extra warmth and flavor.

Step 5: Cook

Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook:

• LOW for 3 to 4 hours
  or
• HIGH for about 2 hours

The dessert is ready when the peaches are bubbling and the top looks soft, golden, and slightly crisp around the edges.

Serving Suggestions

This peach dump cake is best served warm straight from the slow cooker. Top it with:

• Vanilla ice cream
• Fresh whipped cream
• Caramel sauce
• Chopped pecans
• A light sprinkle of cinnamon sugar

The cold ice cream melting into the warm peach filling makes every bite unbelievably comforting.

Tips for the Best Peach Dump Cake

• Use peach pie filling instead of canned peaches for a sweeter dessert.
• Add chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.
• White cake mix or butter pecan cake mix also taste amazing.
• If some dry cake mix remains on top while cooking, drizzle a little extra melted butter over those spots.

Storage

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or enjoy cold straight from the fridge.
