7-Step Peach Cobbler with Cake Mix
This easy peach cobbler recipe uses a boxed cake mix, canned peaches, and butter to create a golden, bubbly dessert that's perfect for any occasion. It's quick, beginner-friendly, and absolutely delicious!
Ingredients
- 2 Cans of peaches in light syrup 1 can = 15 oz, drain one can
- 1 Box yellow cake mix 1 box = 15.25 oz
- 1 Stick unsalted butter 1 Stick = 1/2 cup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon Ground cinnamon Optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). To prevent sticking during cooking, apply a thin layer of cooking oil or butter to a 13x9-inch baking dish. This will create a non-stick surface for the dish's contents.
- Layer the Peaches: Open 2 (15 oz) cans of peaches. Drain one can and leave the syrup in the other. Pour both into the prepared baking dish, spreading them evenly across the bottom.
- Enhance the Flavor: Drizzle 1 tsp vanilla extract over the peaches for a richer flavor. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon on top for a warm, spiced kick (optional).
- Add the Cake Mix: Evenly spread 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix over the peaches, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
- Drizzle the Butter: Melt 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter and drizzle it over the cake mix. Use a fork to spread the butter, ensuring it moistens as much of the cake mix as possible.
- Bake to Perfection: Once the oven has reached the desired temperature, insert the dish into it. Allow it to cook for about 40 to 45 minutes, or until it is completely cooked through. This method will yield the best outcome. You'll know the cobbler is done when its surface has turned a rich golden hue and the peach mixture is simmering at the edges.
- Cool and Serve: Take the cobbler out of the oven and allow it to sit for a minimum of 10 minutes to cool down. Savor the delightful dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a lavish dollop of whipped cream as a topping.
