The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

    About 1 min

  2. 2

    Pour the dry cake mix into a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish and spread it into an even layer.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Do not grease the dish. The butter on top will prevent sticking.

  3. 3

    Pour the entire can of peaches, including all the syrup, evenly over the dry cake mix.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Try to distribute the peach slices evenly for a balanced dessert.

  4. 4

    Gently drag a knife through the mixture two or three times to lightly swirl the layers.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Be careful not to overmix; you want distinct layers of cake and fruit.

  5. 5

    Arrange the thin slices of cold butter evenly across the entire top surface.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Covering the surface with butter ensures the cake mix cooks properly and forms a golden crust.

  6. 6

    Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling at the edges.

    About 40 min

  7. 7

    Carefully remove the cobbler from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

    Cook’s note: This rest period allows the cobbler to set, making it easier to serve.
