Equipment

Ingredients

  • non stick cooking spray
  • ¼ cup salted butter melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3-4 peaches peeled and sliced
  • 15.25 oz. yellow cake mix I use betty crocker
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Spray your slow cooker HEAVILY with nonstick spray or rub down with butter or oil.
  • Add the melted butter to the bottom of the slow cooker and sprinkle over the brown sugar. Mix lightly with a spoon and spread out evenly over the bottom of your slow cooker.
  • Lay down the peach slices top of the brown sugar mixture.
  • In a medium sized bowl add the cake mix, water, eggs, oil and vanilla. Mix with a spoon until combined, do not overmix or try to remove the lumps.
  • Pour the batter over the peaches in the slow cooker.
  • Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 2 hours. If your slow cooker cooks hot, it may be a little less time. You know your cake is done when the cake is set in the center.
  • Remove the insert to a cooling rack when the cake is done. Let cool for about 20 minutes before attempting to turn over onto a platter or cutting board.
  • Flipping the cake on to a platter or cutting board works best with two people if possible.

Notes

  • For the best peach cake, I recommend using ripe peaches. Canned peaches will not hold up as well since they have been in syrup for a while. I also recommend that you not use frozen peaches.
  • Place any remaining cake in an airtight container. It can be kept on the kitchen counter but eaten within 2-3 days. If you want to last a bit longer, put it in the fridge.
