Description
A warm, spoonable slow cooker peach bake made with frozen peaches, cinnamon, yellow cake mix, and melted butter. This easy fruit dessert tastes like a cozy peach cobbler with very little prep.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds frozen sliced peaches, about 6 to 7 cups, unthawed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 box yellow cake mix, about 15.25 ounces
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Lightly grease the inside of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with butter or nonstick spray.
- Pour the frozen sliced peaches into the slow cooker and spread them into an even layer. Keep them frozen.
- Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the peaches, then sprinkle the cinnamon on top.
- Gently toss the peaches with a spoon so the sugar and cinnamon coat the fruit, then spread the peaches back into an even layer.
- Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the peaches, covering the fruit as completely as possible. Do not stir.
- Slowly drizzle the melted butter over the dry cake mix, moistening as much of the surface as possible.
- Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or on low for 4 to 5 hours, until the peaches bubble around the edges and the topping looks set.
- Turn off the slow cooker and let the peach bake rest, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes so it thickens slightly.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, heavy cream, or half-and-half, if desired.
Notes
- Use frozen peaches straight from the freezer for the best texture.
- Do not stir the cake mix into the fruit after layering it on top.
- For a deeper flavor, use spice cake mix instead of yellow cake mix.
- If the peaches taste very tart, increase the sugar to 3/4 cup.
- For a less sweet dessert, reduce the sugar to 1/3 cup.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts over the cake mix before adding butter for extra texture.
- Refrigerate leftovers in a shallow airtight container within 2 hours and use within 3 to 4 days.
