Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Peaches (about 24 oz) do not drain
  • 1 box of white cake mix (about 15 oz)
  • 1 cup butter
  • ½ cup (Optional) coconut, pecans, or oatmeal or a sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13x9 inch cake pan with spray butter.
  • Pour the can of peaches (with its syrup) into the cake pan.
  • Sprinkle the cake mix on top evenly. Add any optional toppings such as coconut, nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon
  • Melt the butter and pour it evenly over the cake mix, do not stir
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
  • Allow cobbler to rest for 15 minutes so the top can harden. Enjoy with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream ...and maybe a drizzle of caramel sauce!

Notes

Leftovers: Reheat the cobbler in microwave or oven. Store the cobbler, tightly sealed, in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
Try other pairings of cake mix and fruit. The measurements remain the same. The most popular cake mix flavors include yellow, white, or chocolate cake mix.
Pick a fruit that complements the cake mix such as... chocolate cake mix w/ cherry pie filling and hot fudge! Or a lemon cake mix w/ canned pineapple and frozen yogurt on top! Cruise the baking aisle and let your taste buds be your guide!
SUBSTITUTIONS: You can double the amount of fruit. Use one stick of butter instead of two. If using less butter, mix the cake mix with the melted butter in a bowl first. Then sprinkle on top of the fruit... to ensure the cake mix is moist enough.
Use canned fruit in light or heavy syrup (such as peaches, pineapple, or blackberries) OR swap with pie filling (such as cherry, blueberry, strawberry, or apple).
This cobbler can be made in the crockpot. Grease the crockpot and cook the cobbler on high for 2 hours or on low for 4 hours.
