Peach Dump Cake
Description
This Peach Dump Cake starts by combining canned peaches—including syrup from two cans and drained fruit from a third—in a 9x13-inch baking dish. A yellow cake mix is whisked together with apple pie spice such as cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and evenly sprinkled over the peaches. Cold butter sliced into small pieces is arranged on top of the cake mix. Baking the dish at 350°F for about an hour results in a golden, bubbly fruit filling and a lightly crisped cake topping.
The cake’s texture balances moistness from the juicy peaches and sweetness from the buttery spiced topping. The apple pie spice gives a warm, autumnal flavor that pairs well with the natural sweetness of the fruit syrup. Allowing the cake to rest after baking helps it set, making it easier to serve.
This dessert works well as a casual family dessert or potluck contribution due to its ease of preparation. It can be served on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to add creaminess and temperature contrast.
