When I need dessert in a hurry, this Peach Cobbler Dump Cake is my go-to recipe.
It literally comes together in a matter of minutes and is so simple that my kids can make it.
This cake can be made year-round because it uses canned peaches (it doesn’t get any easier than that!) and a simple cake mix.
What is a dump cake?
A dump cake is the simplest dessert you can make – it usually has a base of a cake mix plus fruit filling.
You dump all the ingredients into the pan, stir them together (in the pan! No bowl needed!), and bake.
For this Peach Cobbler Dump Cake, you don’t even have to stir all the ingredients together. It really is a dump-and-go dessert.
This dump cake reminds me of a cobbler because of the way the crust gets crispy on the outside, but it stays warm and soft on the inside.
We love dump cakes
It started with this Peach Cobbler Dump Cake, but then branched out into our Pumpkin Dump Cake, and then we made an Apple Cider Dump Cake, and took it a step further with our Apple Raspberry Dump Cake.
They are all so delicious – it’s making me hungry just thinking about them!
How to make Peach Cobbler Dump Cake
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Dump peaches in bottom of a 9×13″ pan.
- Sprinkle dry cake mix on top of peaches.
- Cut butter into small pieces and place on top of cake mix.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake!
We love to serve this warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. It’s the perfect dessert!
To save time, some of our readers have melted the butter and poured it over the top of the dry mix – either way will work just fine.
If you are having problems with the cake being too dry, before you bake the cake, press the cake mix down into the peaches to help combine the dry mix with some of the moisture with the peaches.
Different fruits to add to dump cake
Switch it up by adding one of these fruity pie fillings instead of peaches:
- Cherry pie filling
- Blueberry pie filling
- Mixed berry pie filling
- Apple pie filling
- Blackberry pie filling

Tub butter would work just fine. Hope you like it!
Drain the liquid off te peaches into a bowl, mix a few tablespoons of flour and a tsp or two of cinnamon into the juice before pouring over the peaches. Then dump your dry cake mix and top with butter. It gives the bottom layer that creamy, tangy peach cobbler texture.
An equally awesome twist on this is 2 cans of strawberry pie filling with a chocolate cake mix! We call it chocolate covered strawberry cobbler.

I actually just used a baking dish and baked it in the oven. Just follow the directions and it will walk you through it. Thanks!
I think you could definitely do this in a crockpot! Let us know how it goes!
I have never tried it with fresh peaches so I am not positive how it would turn out. My only concern is that it would be too dry because you pour in the whole can of peaches AND the juice. If you used fresh peaches, I would add some sort of liquid so it wouldn't come out dry and crumbly. Sorry I am not much help!
Just wondering if you used the fresh peaches and how it turn out. I'm thinking of adding sugar to my sliced peaches to get the liquid needed. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thank you
I will say that the Six sister's recipe is as close as any I've ever come across to what she made! ;o)
One question...do the leftovers need to be refrigerated?
