The Magic 3 Ingredients
Here’s all you need to make this crowd-pleasing cobbler:
-
1 box of yellow cake mix
-
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, sliced thin
-
2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches in heavy syrup
(or use 4 cups of fresh peaches with ½ cup sugar and juice if desired)
That’s it! No eggs. No oil. No fancy equipment. Just classic comfort in under an hour.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Choose a 9x13-inch baking dish or similar size.
Step 2: Pour the Peaches
Pour both cans of peaches and their syrup into the baking dish. No draining! You want all that sweet peachy goodness.
Step 3: Add the Cake Mix
Evenly sprinkle the entire dry cake mix over the peaches. Do not stir. This is a dump cake-style cobbler—easy layering is key.
Step 4: Add the Butter
Place the thin slices of butter across the entire surface of the cake mix. Try to cover as much area as possible. This will melt and create that crispy, golden crust.
Step 5: Bake Until Golden
Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling around the edges.
Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving—if you can wait that long.
Serving Suggestions: Make It Even Better
This 3 Ingredient Peach Cobbler is a dream on its own, but here are some ideas to take it over the top:

Drizzle with caramel or cinnamon glaze

Sprinkle with chopped pecans or walnuts before baking
-
Add a dusting of powdered sugar before serving
-
Pair with a warm cup of chai tea or coffee
Every variation adds a new level of comfort and indulgence.
