Peach Cobbler Dump Cake Recipe

Canned peaches in syrup: These provide the sweet, juicy base for the cobbler.

Yellow cake mix: This forms the crumbly, cake-like topping.

Vegan butter: Melted and drizzled over the top, it adds richness and helps create a golden crust.

When preparing this peach cobbler dump cake, ensure the vegan butter is thoroughly melted and evenly drizzled over the cake mix. This will help create a uniform, golden-brown crust. Additionally, for an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg over the peaches before adding the cake mix.

• 2 cans sliced peaches in syrup - Substitute with fresh peaches and maple syrup: Fresh peaches provide a more natural flavor, and maple syrup adds a rich sweetness without the need for processed sugars.

• 1 box yellow cake mix - Substitute with homemade vegan cake mix: A homemade mix can be made using flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt, ensuring it is free from any non-vegan ingredients.

• ½ cup vegan butter, melted - Substitute with coconut oil: Coconut oil provides a similar fat content and texture, making it a great vegan alternative to butter.

• Allow the peach cobbler dump cake to cool completely at room temperature before storing. This helps to prevent condensation, which can make the dessert soggy.
• Once cooled, cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Alternatively, transfer the cake to an airtight container.
• Store the peach cobbler in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. The cool temperature will help maintain its freshness and texture.
• For longer storage, consider freezing the cobbler. Cut the cake into individual portions and wrap each piece tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container.
• Label the container with the date to keep track of its freshness. The peach cobbler dump cake can be frozen for up to 2-3 months.
• When ready to enjoy, thaw the cake in the refrigerator overnight. This gradual thawing process helps retain the dessert's texture and flavor.
• To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the thawed peach cobbler in an oven-safe dish and cover with aluminum foil to prevent drying out. Heat for about 15-20 minutes or until warmed through.
• Alternatively, you can reheat individual portions in the microwave. Place a piece of cake on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a microwave-safe cover or another plate. Heat on medium power for 1-2 minutes, checking frequently to avoid overheating.

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the leftover peach cobbler dump cake in an oven-safe dish. Cover it with aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until heated through.

• For a quicker method, use the microwave. Place a portion of the peach cobbler dump cake on a microwave-safe plate. Cover it with a microwave-safe cover or another plate to retain moisture. Heat on medium power for 1-2 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure it heats evenly.

• If you prefer a crispier topping, use a toaster oven. Preheat the toaster oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the peach cobbler dump cake on a toaster oven-safe tray. Heat for 10-15 minutes, keeping an eye on it to avoid burning.

• For an unconventional method, use a stovetop. Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a portion of the peach cobbler dump cake to the skillet. Cover with a lid and heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating.

• If you have an air fryer, preheat it to 350°F (175°C). Place the peach cobbler dump cake in the air fryer basket. Heat for 5-7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even heating.
