This is a great recipe. However, I made a few changes. I used 1 29oz. cans of peaches with juice, plus a 16oz. can w/o the juice. I sprinkled cinnamon over the peaches before covering with cake mix, sprinkled a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon over cake mix. Finally, I shredded butter over topping as suggested by another reviewer. It turned out great, not soggy at all...baked for 60 minutes.

This recipe also works with canned pears and is just as yummy. Follow all directions exactly the same, just use pears instead of peaches.

This recipe was easy and GOOD!!!!! I had to buy more cans of peaches because 2 16oz cans was NOT enough! I had to add 2 more! I shredded cold butter like others suggested (great idea!) AND I added brown sugar to mine as well, I added the brown sugar to the top, on top of the butter, but I think next time I will mix it with the cake batter before putting on top of the peaches because it carmelized too much on the top. Thanks for the easy delicious recipe!

This is yummy. I used a 28 oz can of peaches and a 16 oz can too. I melted the butter instead of slicing (I really don't see what difference it makes if I melt or slice). I topped it off with chopped pecans (lots of them) and a whole lot of cinnamon. Served with vanilla ice cream. This is my new favorite dessert.

we only had one serving of this, it was ok, but I did what others recommended and that was to mix the juice from the peaches into the cake mix.I also added an egg to the cake mix, maybe I shouldn't have. Other than that it turned out fine, not soggy, but the taste was just not there for us. I usualy make peach cobbler from scratch. Thanks though

This was a super quick and easy way to satisfy a sweet tooth in a hurry! Not the prettiest dessert I've ever made, but pretty good considering how easy it is.

So dang easy and good! Definetely something you could throw together at the last minute. I think chopped pecans would be an excellent addition if you like nuts.

I think this is the best version of the Peach Dump Cake that can be made with canned peaches. I combined many of the tips and this is what I got. Ok: I used 3 -15 oz. cans of the peaches in juice (not syrup). After I poured the peaches in the pan, I mixed the cake batter with the juice from 2 cans and poured it on top and spread it evenly with a spoon. I then sprinkled about 3/4 cup of quick cook oatmeal evenly over the top to cut the foreshadowed soggy in the other comments. Then I spooned the full amount of butter/melted on top. I then sprinkled cinnamon and brown sugar over that. Cooked @ 375 for 45 min. exactly. It was great! If you want it cake like this would be the way to go. I like it a little more "soggy" so next time I will add another 1/2 can of juice! Enjoy!!!

I love this recipe!!!! I have made it numerous times always with great results and compliments. I melt my butter and completely cover the batter with it, I cook it about 10-15 minutes longer than the recipe calls for to ensure there are no soggy spots. I also take the juice from the peaches and mix it with the batter then pour that over the sliced peaches. Turns out perfect and yummy every time!!!

Instead of putting two cans of peaches in heavy syrup, I used one can of peaches in heavy syrup and two cans (11 oz.) of mandarin oranges in light syrup. It turned out so delicious!!! My boyfriend and I are fans of sweet desserts and this recipe definitely fit the bill.

Tasty and easy - went together in ten minutes and baked while we ate. For those of you who said it was soggy, I wonder if you have had cobblers before, which are supposed to be juicy on the bottom and cakey on the top. Mine was like this but the cake was not soggy at all. I used a Golden Butter Yellow Moist Deluxe cake mix (or something like that) and used 3 cans of peaches in 100% fruit juice. Drained one can but dumped the other two. Cut my peaches up and used a grater with cold butter for the top (thank you reviewers who submitted those tips!) I used half the butter the recipe called for and still got the top well covered with the grating method. No dry spots - I mashed all the mix down into the juices well. My family loved this recipe! It's not something I'd serve for a fancy dinner party because it's not super pretty and the texture is a little spongy for me, but the taste was very good! Kind of down-homey, so it was perfect for a family dessert.

I don't know what went wrong with this one but it was really mushy under the topping. I pushed the cake into the peaches as instructed. We liked the peaches but the rest was not really edible.

This is SO simple & deliscious!!!! I add uncooked oatmeal sprinkled on top before baking & some nutmeg w/ the cinnamon. You get a BIG hit for a little effort!!! I also cut up the peaches (after dumping in the dish) into chuncks, makes it easier to serve & eat. Enjoy!!!
