    Peach Dump Cake is loaded with baked peaches in each lovely bite of this summery peach dessert!  Basically, all you need is a cake mix, peaches and butter! Seriously, just dump each of the ingredients you need, layered into the baking pan and bake. Baking could not be easier!

    Everything's Coming Up Peaches! 

    I love a good recipe with just a few ingredients and this recipe is wonderful, specifically for that reason and when you have fresh peaches!  It tastes like a peach cobbler and cake dessert that is gooey and full of peach flavor.

    The peach dump cake magic happens when the peaches below and the butter on top all come together while baking, then you get a bubbly and golden, crispy topping in the end. God help us, you made this way too easy!

    Just imagine all the fun you can have switching out your favorite fruits, besides peaches.  Or switching out cake mixes to get your favorite cake and fruits you love or have on hand that NOW you have something to make without putting in a lot of effort.  Want to know more about dump cakes?  Here's a History of the Dump Cake!

    Cake Flavor Options

    To spruce up this peach dump cake, we added some cinnamon to the cake mix to give the cake more flavor. The sweetness of the summer peaches baking with cinnamon gives this cake a perfect spiced fall flavor and fills the house with the most amazing aroma!

    For more textures and flavors, add some pecans and a vanilla glaze and this dessert is peachy, creamy and dreamy!  Even more extravagant with a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!  So good and I'll warn you now, this peach dump cake recipe is very addictive on it's own, without all the little extras!

    Using Fruits

    Use frozen fruits, canned or fresh fruits.  If using fresh or frozen fruits, just remember to add some ¼ cup to ½ cup of sugar to sweeten your fruit up.  Apples, blueberries, cherries, blackberries, strawberries all work! You can also use your favorite canned fruit and cake mix to come up with your version of a dump cake.  Can you taste the yumminess?

    Ingredients You Need

    Peach Dump Cake

    • 2 15.25 oz. cans sliced peaches in heavy syrup OR 6-8 peaches, chopped with ¼ to ½ cup of sugar, all mixed together
    • ¾ cup salted butter, cut into thin slices
    • 1 15.25-oz. box white or yellow cake mix
    • Optional: 1 teaspoon cinnamon, add to cake mix for more fall flavored dessert
    • Optional: pecans

    Vanilla Glaze

    • ½ cup powdered sugar
    • 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk of choice

    How to Make Peach Dump Cake Recipe

    Peach Dump Cake

    • Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a 9x13 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. 
    • Add the peaches and the syrup from the cans into the pan and spread out evenly or if want to use fresh peaches, peel and chop peaches, then mix them with ¼ - ½ cup of sugar and spread out on bottom of pan evenly.
    • Pour the dry cake mix over the peach mixture, patting into an even layer using your hands or a spoon. 
    • Layer the sliced butter evenly over the top of the cake mix, making sure to get in the corners of the cake.
    • If adding pecans, add them on top of the cake. ( I did ½ with pecans and ½ without.)
    • Bake until the top of the cake is golden brown and the peach mixture is bubbly, about 45 minutes.

    Vanilla Glaze

    • If you want to add a glaze on top, mix together ½ cup of powdered sugar and a little heavy cream or milk to get a nice glaze consistency.  Pour it into a ziplock bag and snip an end and pipe some crisscross lines on top, if desired.
    • Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream for the ultimate treat!
