Equipment

Ingredients

PEACH LAYER:

  • 2 pounds frozen peaches thawed and drained (could use fresh or canned peaches)
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

TOPPING:

  • 1 16.25 ounce box yellow or white cake mix
  • 12 Tablespoons salted butter cut into 16 pieces

FOR SERVING:

  • Vanilla ice cream optional

Instructions

PREHEAT OVEN AND PREP PAN:

ASSEMBLE COBBLER:

  • Sprinkle the cake mix over the peaches.
  • Place the butter pieces over the cake mix, spacing them out evenly.

BAKE:

  • Bake until the peaches are bubbling and the top is golden brown, about 40-45 minutes, rotating halfway through baking.
