A quick and easy peach cobbler dump cake with a cinnamon crumble topping that combines juicy peaches and buttery crumbs for a comforting summer dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peeled and sliced peaches (about 6 medium ripe peaches) or frozen peaches, thawed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 box (15.25 oz / 432 g) yellow cake mix
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pinch of nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. If using fresh peaches, peel and slice about 4 cups (6 medium peaches). Toss them with 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if using. Let sit for 5 minutes to macerate.
  3. Spread the peaches evenly in the bottom of the baking dish, including the syrupy juices.
  4. Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the peaches. Do not stir.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the cake mix layer.
  6. Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
  7. Cool for 10–15 minutes before serving to let the juices thicken slightly.

Notes

If topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. For frozen peaches, thaw and drain excess liquid to avoid sogginess. Do not stir cake mix into peaches to maintain a crisp topping. Butter mixed with cinnamon helps the topping brown evenly.
