Ingredients
29 oz peach slices in juice (undrained)
0.5 tsp vanilla extract
0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
0.125 tsp ground nutmeg
18.25 oz yellow cake mix
0.33 cup light brown sugar
12 tbsp unsalted butter, sliced thinly
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Spray a 9×13 inch casserole dish thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour the peaches and their liquid into the dish.
Stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the peach layer.
Lightly stir the juice into the cake mix using a wooden spoon to prevent large dry clumps.
Top the surface with thin slices of butter and sprinkle with the brown sugar.
Bake for 50 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Notes
Use a high-quality box cake mix for the best texture. Ensure the butter is sliced thin to allow for even coverage while melting. If you prefer more crunch, you can add chopped pecans on top before baking.
