Ingredients
The secret to this dump cake lies in its simple yet indulgent ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
For the Cake:
1 large can (29 oz) sliced peaches in heavy syrup (or 4–5 cups fresh or frozen peaches)
1 box yellow or white cake mix (your favorite brand)
1/2 cup unsalted butter (sliced into thin pats)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for added warmth)
Optional Add-Ins:
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (for crunch)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (for extra spice)
1/2 cup brown sugar (for extra sweetness)
Instructions
Ready to whip up this sweet, gooey delight? Follow these easy steps:
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) . Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or spray it with nonstick cooking spray for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Layer the Peaches
Drain the canned peaches (if using) and spread them evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. If using fresh or frozen peaches, toss them with 1–2 tablespoons of sugar before adding them to the dish.
Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the peaches, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
Step 3: Add Butter and Toppings
Place the thin slices of butter evenly over the cake mix. The butter will melt during baking and create a golden, crumbly topping.
Sprinkle cinnamon (and optional nuts or brown sugar) over the top for added flavor and texture.
Step 4: Bake the Cake
Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes , or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool slightly before serving.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Pair with a hot cup of coffee or tea for a truly satisfying experience.
