Description

This Peach Cobbler with Cake Mix is an unbelievably easy and comforting dessert that combines the natural sweetness of canned peaches with the convenience of a boxed yellow cake mix. Topped with melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and crunchy nuts, it bakes into a golden, bubbling treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Fruit Base

  • 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches in syrup or juice

Topping

  • 1 box (about 15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare it for baking your cobbler.
  2. Prepare the peaches: Drain the sliced peaches slightly if desired, then pour them evenly into a 9×13-inch baking dish, including a little of the syrup for added sweetness and moisture.
  3. Add cinnamon and brown sugar: Sprinkle the ground cinnamon and brown sugar evenly over the peaches to enhance their natural flavor and help create a caramelized crust.
  4. Sprinkle cake mix: Evenly spread the dry yellow cake mix over the peach layer without stirring or mixing it in.
  5. Add nuts (optional): Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the cake mix layer to add a crunchy, toasty contrast.
  6. Pour melted butter: Drizzle the melted unsalted butter slowly and evenly over the entire top of the cake mix, ensuring most of the surface is covered to help it bake into a crisp, golden crust.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes until the top is golden brown and the peach mixture is bubbling.
  8. Cool and serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to let the juices thicken a bit. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

  • Using canned peaches in syrup adds extra sweetness, but if you prefer less sugar, opt for peaches canned in juice and adjust brown sugar accordingly.
  • You can substitute pecans with walnuts or leave nuts out for a nut-free version.
  • For a crispier topping, make sure to evenly distribute melted butter over the cake mix without stirring.
  • This cobbler is delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat gently before serving.
