Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (29 oz / 822 g) sliced peaches in juice (not syrup)
- 1 box (15.25 oz / 432 g) yellow cake mix
- 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Optional: 1/4 tsp nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Drain the peaches slightly. Pour the sliced peaches and their juices into the baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
- Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the peaches without stirring.
- Mix the melted butter with cinnamon (and nutmeg if using) in a small bowl. Pour this mixture evenly over the cake mix layer.
- Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and edges bubble slightly.
- Remove from oven and let cool for about 15 minutes.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Drain peaches slightly to avoid soggy cake. Mix melted butter with cinnamon before pouring for best flavor. Tent with foil if edges brown too fast. Leftovers reheat well in microwave or oven. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free cake mix. For gluten-free, use gluten-free yellow cake mix.
