Ingredients You’ll Need
(6-quart slow cooker; serves 6–8)

2 (15 oz) cans sliced peaches in syrup (do not drain!)
1 (15.25 oz) box yellow or butter cake mix
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp ground cinnamon (optional but recommended)
Optional: Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving

💡 Pro Tips:
Do NOT drain the peaches—the syrup provides essential moisture.
Use full-fat butter—margarine or oil won’t create the same crisp topping.
Sprinkle cinnamon over peaches before adding cake mix for extra warmth.

Step-by-Step Instructions (Gooey, Golden, Foolproof)
1. Prep Slow Cooker
Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with butter or nonstick spray.

2. Add Peaches
Pour undrained canned peaches (syrup and all) into the slow cooker.
Stir in cinnamon if using.

3. Sprinkle Cake Mix
Do not mix! Simply pour the dry cake mix evenly over the peaches.
🚫 No stirring—it forms the cobbler crust as it bakes.

4. Drizzle Butter
Pour melted butter evenly over the top—do not stir. It will seep down and create a rich, golden crust.

5. Cook Low & Slow
Cover and cook on HIGH for 2–2.5 hours (or LOW for 3.5–4 hours), until topping is set and golden, and edges are bubbly.
⚠️ Avoid lifting the lid early—steam is key for texture.

6. Serve Warm
Scoop into bowls while hot. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Best served the day it’s made—topping softens over time.

Serving Suggestions

Make-Ahead & Storage Tips
Fridge: Keeps up to 2 days—reheat gently in microwave or oven.

Prep ahead: Measure ingredients morning-of; dump into slow cooker when ready.
