    Easy three-ingredient peach cobbler dessert

    This three-ingredient peach cobbler is still a favorite from when I first started blogging! It is such a quick and easy dessert to make since I normally have everything at home.

     

    close up of some peach cobbler on a white plate

    Seriously, these are the three ingredients!  Yellow cake mix, a large can of peaches and a stick of butter!  I've been told that in some parts of the country this is called a dump recipe.  Three ingredient peach dump recipe just doesn't sound as good!

    three ingredient peach cobbler

     

    Oh, yea!   A super simple three-ingredient peach cobbler.   It's probably the easiest recipe I've done and it was gobbled up the quickest.  Some of you may know this by a different term.  If you are from the South, this would problably be called a peach dump cake.

    If you feel like a cherry-type cobbler, I've modified this recipe for you.  Just take a look at this three ingredient cherry cobbler recipe

    Ingredients:

    Yellow cake mix

    Large can of Peaches (29 oz)

    1 stick of butter

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.

    I use nonstick cooking spray on my casserole dish because it makes cleaning it later easier.  And the whole point of this recipe is to keep it easy.

    Dump can of peaches into the casserole dish.  I cut a few of the thicker ones in half but you don't have to.   I've even cut the peaches in half so each piece is only about an inch wide.  But you don't have to - keep it easy!

    three ingredient peach cobbler

    Pour the dry cake mix on top.   Smooth it gently with a knife (or a spoon, or a fork or your fingers....)  DON'T MIX IT.  Yes, it stays dry and powdery on top of the peaches - it should like the picture below.

    Cut the butter into thin slices and then spread it evenly on the cake mix.

    three ingredient peach cobbler

    You are done your prep.!   Now put it in the oven for 30-40 minutes.  You want it to be bubbly and the crust to be a golden brown.  And it smells sooooo good!   My kids are used to me experimenting and making stuff.  They usually ignore my newest project and roll their eyes at my excitement. {sigh} Teenagers!!   But when I made this, they came in and were looking for whatever it was that smelled so good.

    Mmmmmmmmmmmm

     

    Enjoy the taste, savor the smell and not even a bowl to clean!!  The only thing that would make this three-ingredient peach cobbler any better would be a scoop of ice cream : )!

    A super easy three ingredient peach cobbler recipe.  A delicious and easy recipe that the whole family will love!

    Ingredients

    1  box Yellow cake mix

    1 Large can of Peaches (29 oz)

    1 stick of butter

    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.

    I use nonstick spray on my casserole dish because it makes cleaning it later easier.  And the whole point of this recipe is to keep it easy.

    Dump can of peaches into the casserole dish.  With every delicious drop of juice!  I cut a few of the thicker ones in half but you don’t have to.

    Pour the dry cake mix on top.  Straight from the box!  Smooth it gently with a knife (or a spoon, or a fork or your fingers….)  DON’T MIX IT.  Yes, it stays dry and powdery on top of the peaches!

    Cut the butter into thin slices and then spread it evenly on the cake mix.

    You are done your prep.!   Now put it in the oven for 30-40 minutes.  You want it to be bubbly and the crust to be a golden brown.  And it smells sooooo good!   My kids are used to me experimenting and making stuff.  They usually ignore my newest project and roll their eyes at my excitement. {sigh} Teenagers!!   But when I made this, they came in and were looking for whatever it was that smelled so good.

    Add a scoop of ice cream to make this extra delicious!

      If I have unsalted butter I will use that. But, it's totally fine with salted.

      Do you use salted or no salt better. Thanks

      Made the peach cobbler today, added an extra 15 ounce can of peaches, I drained the juice. Was very yummy, quick and easy. I will definitely make again. Delicious with cool whip on top.

      I use to be a manager with Tupperware and remember sharing these recipies with guests at my parties but it's been a long time and I had forgotten most of them. Thank you for reminding me. I with I'd remembered them when my church was taking food to the homeless and I was baking every Saturday. Stay well.

      I made this for Thanksgiving this year and it was a huge hit! The only issue I ran into was that the spots between the butter were still flour-ey around the 30 minute mark, so I just chopped up a little bit more butter and put it anywhere that looked dry. Worked like a charm and was delicious!

      I've been making it a little different, & we love it, I mix cake mix with 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts, melt butter & mix together, then crumble over top of peaches it's so awesome, no dry gritty cake mix , try it you will love it .

      Well, since I had a Bundt cake pan from my Christmas fruit cake baking, I thought I'd see what happened if I made it in that pan. I dont know whether the peaches migrate to the top. If they dont and I turn it out on a shallow platter and all of them look like a "peach upside down cake", it would be just as good and also an interesting take on the pineapple version.

      can you spread the cake mix thru the peaches??? And when you pour the peaches in can you add sugar,cinnamon

      Made the Peach Cobbler easy breezy and OMG so good my husband and girlfriend wives it down with scoop of vanilla ice cream. Thanks so much for sharing!

      May 06, 2018 at 7:37 pm

      Thank you for letting me know I didn't mention the size. I'll go right into the post and correct that. It is a 9 x 13 pan.

    16. momcrieff

      May 06, 2018 at 7:32 pm

      Make sure you are spreading the cake mix evenly. Perhaps even use a strainer and break up the lumps. Sometimes it happens when the cake mix is 'lumpy'. Basically, the cake mix needs to be able to absorb the butter and the liquid from the canned peaches.
      Let me know if this helps!

    17. Lo

      May 06, 2018 at 3:15 pm

      Every time I try making this, not all of the cake mix cooks. So when you cut into it, you can actually see the cake mix in some spots. Not bad, still tastes delicious. Any ideas on how to fix that or does it do that for you too?? I think I’m cooking it long enough, the top is completely golden. Maybe more butter?

    18. Terry

      April 16, 2018 at 12:54 am

      You don't mention the size of the pan at all. I'm guessing it's 9x13, then again, could be 9x8 or 8x8. You just say My Casserole Dish. That can mean anything. Always remember, cooking is an art, but baking is a SCIENCE.

    19. momcrieff

      December 24, 2017 at 5:08 pm

      I would think homemade canned peaches would work well. And, be even more delicious!

      I like a lot of peaches. I used 3 cans of peaches. I added vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, allspice & nutmeg. I should have thicken the heavy syrup. Taste ok for a lazy way of making a peach cobbler.

    26. momcrieff

      January 15, 2016 at 9:24 am

      Glad you enjoyed the peach cobbler! Thanks for sharing the recipe with your readers!! It is so easy and I keep the ingredients on hand so I can make this last minute.

    27. momcrieff

      October 27, 2015 at 7:28 pm

      I think that would work just fine! You probably need to bake it according to the pie crust directions.

    28. Paige

      October 14, 2015 at 2:05 pm

      can I use a pie crust on top instead of the cake?

    29. momcrieff

      October 12, 2015 at 10:53 am

      Hi! Preheat and bake at 350. For complete directions, click into the blog post. Thanks for stopping by!

      July 31, 2015 at 7:45 am

      I have not done that but would think it's worth a try. If you do try making this with a gluten free cake mix, please let us know how it turned out!

      Oddly enough I decided to find a recipe for peace cobler yesterday. Then, being lazy, I thought I would wait to see what Momcrief had this week. Welllllllll, here we all are and I will be checking it out Saturday.

    36. sherry brown

      July 29, 2015 at 11:38 pm

      I wonder if it will work with a gluten free cake mix?

    37. momcrieff

      June 30, 2015 at 10:09 pm

      I have never made it with margarine but I think it would work. Just make sure to use the stick margarine (like you would bake with).

    38. Sal Shearer (@TuffGirl)

      June 29, 2015 at 11:15 pm

      This looks so good! Does it have to be butter, though? Could I just put a dollops of margarine over it all?

    39. momcrieff

      July 29, 2014 at 6:52 pm

      Thank you for letting us know! Hmmmm, so many pie fillings to try out now!!

      July 29, 2014 at 5:50 pm

      So I did try it with the peaches pie filing, turned out great!

    41. momcrieff

      July 27, 2014 at 8:11 am

      Not 100% sure BUT, I think there is a good chance it would work. It's pretty low risk to try though. If you do, please let us know if it works out!

    42. Beth

      July 26, 2014 at 8:25 pm

      Sooo I didn't have peaches in the juice but I had peaches pie filling, would that be ok?

      Thanks for your comments. I will have to try the cherry and brownie mix suggestion. Sounds really good!

    45. PeabuttonsMom

      July 18, 2014 at 9:32 pm

      Here in my part of the USA we always called this kind of cake a "Dump" cake. 🙂 Easy because you just dump in your ingredients, shake it around a little bit, "patty cake" the top and it's near done! Make all kinds with different fruits AND different box cake flavors, too! How about cherries with a chocolate brownie mix? YUM!!

      July 18, 2014 at 6:23 pm

      Looks delicious! And I like how you put small pats of butter on top instead of melting it and trying to pour it evenly. Genius.

    48. Marge

      June 17, 2014 at 5:59 pm

      Would this work with fresh peaches that have been frozen? Looks yummy!
