How to make peach dump cake
- Step 1. First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. While the oven is warming up, get out a 9×13 baking dish.
Step 2. Then add 2 cans of the peaches to a baking dish with cooking spray. You will need to drain the juice of the 3rd can of peaches and only add the sliced peaches this time. Just stir to combine.
Step 3. Get out a mixing bowl and whisk together the dry cake mix and the spices. Once combined, sprinkle over the top layer making sure to cover all the peaches.
Step 4. Place the sliced butter squares all over the top of the cake mix. I prefer to use butter squares instead of melted butter.
Step 5. Finally, bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the cake mix and butter starts to get golden brown. The fruit should be bubbly. Allow the peach cobbler to sit for a few minutes before serving. It’s great served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Topping ideas
- Ice cream. No Churn Vanilla Ice Cream is delicious but feel free to try different ice cream flavors. Use peach ice cream for more peach flavor or butter pecan would be fabulous.
- Whipped cream. Homemade Whipped Cream Recipe is so easy and delicious.
- Caramel sauce. Drizzle all over the top. It is so good. You can use store bought or Easy Homemade Caramel Sauce.
- Top with nuts. Chopped pecans or walnuts are great.
- We have also made a crumble topping with brown sugar, chopped pecans and butter to put on top. This is totally optional but really delicious if you have a few extra minutes

I use the Betty Crocker Sugar Free yellow cake mix & am looking forward to trying this. I also will use peaches in light syrup. I am diabetic & have to modify almost every recipe I find.
I love those ideas!
What are the measurements for the Crumble topping?
Is the topping placed on top of cake and baked at the same time or added after some time in the oven?
You just place all the topping on top and then bake.
