Ingredients
- 2 15-ounce cans sliced peaches in heavy syrup
- 1 15.25-ounce box yellow cake mix
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted (or 1 cup thinly sliced butter)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
- Pour both cans of peaches, including the syrup, into the prepared baking dish and spread them into an even layer.
- Evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the peaches. Do not stir.
- Slowly drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, covering as much of the dry mix as possible. Sprinkle with cinnamon, if using.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Let the cake cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- Do not stir the layers—this gives the cake its signature texture.
- Cover as much of the cake mix as possible with butter for an evenly golden topping.
- Fresh peaches can be substituted when in season.
- Add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
