Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker
Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick spray or a bit of butter. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup much easier.
Step 2: Add the Peaches
Open your can of peaches and pour everything—fruit and syrup—into the bottom of the slow cooker. Spread them evenly with a spoon or spatula.
Tip: If you prefer smaller fruit pieces, you can chop the peach slices into chunks before adding them.
Step 3: Sprinkle the Cake Mix
Evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the peaches. Do not mix. Just let it sit on top like a blanket—it will absorb moisture and form a cakey, cobbler topping as it cooks.
Pro tip: Use the back of a spoon to gently press the mix down so it touches some of the syrup, helping it cook more evenly.
Step 4: Add Butter and Cinnamon
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix. Try to cover as much surface as possible. This creates that rich, golden cobbler crust.
Then, sprinkle the cinnamon on top for a warm, spiced note that complements the peaches perfectly.
Step 5: Slow Cook
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 2 to 2.5 hours or on LOW for 4 hours. You’ll know it’s done when the top is golden and the edges are bubbling.
Avoid lifting the lid too often, as this releases heat and slows down the cooking process.
Step 6: Serve and Savor
Once finished, scoop out generous spoonfuls of the cobbler into bowls. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a divine dessert experience.
Final Thoughts
This slow cooker peach cobbler is more than just easy—it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. With just canned peaches, cake mix, butter, and a touch of cinnamon, you’ll have a cozy dessert that tastes like it took hours to make.
