Dump cakes have long been a favorite dessert because of their easy preparation and delicious, cobbler-like results. This version is cooked in the slow cooker, freeing the oven up for other dishes. All you need is a small box of cake mix, a bag of frozen peaches—or fresh sliced—and some basic pantry ingredients. Just throw it all together in the slow crock pot and get ready to enjoy a tasty, effortless dessert.

The recipe calls for a white cake mix, but feel free to use a yellow cake, butter, or butter pecan. Double the recipe for a larger amount.

A one-layer cake mix or half of a 2-layer cake mix—about 2 cups—makes this slow cooker dump cake a snap to prepare.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag frozen peaches (2 cups sliced peaches)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 Jiffy white cake mix (or 1/2 package of a 2-layer size cake mix)
  • 4 tablespoons butter (melted)

Steps to Make It

  1. Gather the ingredients.

  2. Lightly grease the crock pot; place peaches in the bottom. Sprinkle with cornstarch; toss.

  3. Drizzle with vanilla and sprinkle brown sugar over all.

  4. Sprinkle with cinnamon then the cake mix.

  5. Drizzle melted butter evenly over cake mix.

  6. Cover and cook on high for 4 to 4 1/2 hours.

  7. Serve and enjoy!
