Peach Dump Cake
The genius that decided to dump a bunch of dessert staples into a pan and see what happens next deserves an award. They are my hero! Dump cakes are a dream recipe for busy moms and dads. For those days when just getting through the door is a chore, you can still impress the entire family with a tasty dessert that doesn’t take much effort from you. The prep for this delicious peach dump cake recipe is five minutes. I’ll say it louder, FIVE MINUTES. No mess, no fuss, just dump it in the pan and go.
Can you Make Crockpot Peach Dump Cake?
You can and you should! It is literally the exact same recipe and instructions, except you use a crockpot instead of the skillet and an oven. For this method, you will put the peach pie filling in the bottom of a greased crockpot, top with the cake, and then butter, and then cover and cook on high for 2 hours or on low for 4. You can get the same great-tasting results with a slow cooker as with cooking in the oven. This is a great option if you are already using up some of your precious oven space!
Topping Ideas for Peach Dump Cake
The basic topping choices for a peach dump cake are whipped cream or ice cream. Within those two categories, there are a few variations that can really take this dump cake to a whole new level. For the ice cream, we almost always have vanilla or vanilla bean as a staple in our freezer. The vanilla ice cream is a perfect complement to the buttery, cakey, peach flavors in the dump cake.
Homemade Whipped Cream
Making your own whipped cream is probably one of the top recommendations that I will ever give you when discussing homemade desserts. I have traditional homemade whipped cream and stabilized whipped cream should you want to make this dessert ahead of time!

can you use canned peaches in place of the peach pie filling????
Can I make this with fresh peaches,if I thicken them?
delicous and easy alternative to making a cobbler. Perfect for week night treat
I found your peach dump cake recipe last year and copied it down. I made this last week for a church function and everyone loved it! When they asked for the recipe, I referred them to your I Am Baker web site, and showed them the recipe. I noticed you had changed the recipe, from 3 cans to 2 of pie filling (original called for a 3rd can, but without the juice) and you now do not add 1 tsp cinnamon to yellow cake mix. I am sure it is still good, but I am keeping my original one!
Do you make this in 8×8 or 13×9?
Thank you
Its a skillet or a 9×13.
can i use a can of peach pie mix and a can of drained peaches instead of 2 caned of peach pie mix ?
My husband’s card playing folks really enjoyed…. my husband does not like “peach stuff” so added some drained cherries from a 10oz jar probably 8oz since a few were missing! Also, used French Vanilla cake mix and will not use entire box the next time I make it. He did enjoy too..
