Crock Pot Peach Cobbler

Crock Pot peach cobbler is a set-and-forget slow cooker dessert with impossibly tender spiced peaches and a golden, cake-like topping. The topping steams as it cooks for a fluffy, moist bite while peach juices bubble around the edges.

Ingredients
  

Cobbler base
  • 2 can (15 oz) sliced peaches in syrup Drain and reserve 1/4 cup syrup.
  • 0.5 cup yellow cake mix One 15.25 oz box.
  • 0.25 cup peach syrup Use the reserved 1/4 cup peach syrup.
  • 0.5 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter Melted.
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 cooking spray
Serving
  • 1 vanilla ice cream Serve warm.

Equipment

  • 1 slow cooker

Method
 

Assemble in the slow cooker
  1. Spray the slow cooker insert with cooking spray so the topping releases easily.
  2. Spread the drained sliced peaches in an even layer on the bottom of the slow cooker.
  3. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over the peaches for a spiced layer.
  4. Mix the yellow cake mix with the reserved peach syrup and melted butter until crumbly, then spread it evenly over the peaches.
  5. Place a layer of paper towels under the slow cooker lid to absorb condensation, helping the topping stay golden and set.
Slow cook and serve
  1. Cook on High for 2-3 hours, until the topping is set and cooked through, with steam lifting the topping as it finishes.
  2. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

For best texture, don’t stir during cooking—leave the peaches to simmer under the cake topping. Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container up to 3 days; rewarm in the microwave until steaming. Freezing is not recommended because the topping can turn gummy after thawing. For a lighter option, use a reduced-sugar yellow cake mix if available.
