3 Ingredient Peach Dump Cake

Thursday, August 6, 2020
Using a cake mix, canned peaches and butter will make the quickest easiest baked dessert you will ever bake and imagine just 3 ingredients!


I actually forgot about this recipe mom made often back in the 1970s when we had unexpected company.


I never knew how easy it was until I started baking myself.


This is always one you need to keep on hand for potluck, picnics, and spur of the moment dessert to bring for a dinner party.


This vintage recipe was always made with cherry pie filling and a box of yellow cake mix.


Also in the notes in the recipe card you will find the alternative for using fresh peaches and instructions for a summer fresh treat!


Now, with all the innovative flavors, I used a few different ingredients and came up with our favorite fruit dump cake using a spice cake.


Everything gets layered hence the reason for things dump cake, and there is no mixing involved!


We love easy recipes using a mix, you may remember my delicious Dark Chocolate Cake Mix Cake Banana Cake Mix Cake or my  4 Ingredient Pumpkin Spice Cake.


Just keep a few pantry ingredients on hand and you will never be caught short without having something yummy made in no time and I even use disposable pans when giving it away!
