The Three-Ingredient Magic:
Now, let’s get to the good part – the recipe! This dessert is incredibly simple, requiring only three ingredients, yet it delivers an irresistible combination of flavors and textures. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
1. 1 can of peaches in syrup or juice (about 15 ounces) – Peaches are the star of the show, and canned peaches are the most convenient option for this recipe.
2. 1 box of yellow cake mix– This will act as the base and add structure to the dessert. The cake mix will soak up the peach juice, creating a sweet, tender topping.
3. 1/2 cup of butter (1 stick), melted – The butter adds richness and helps the cake mix create a golden, slightly crispy topping. It also helps bind the ingredients together and adds flavor to the dish.
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Slow Cooker:
Begin by greasing the inside of your slow cooker with a little butter or non-stick cooking spray to prevent the dessert from sticking to the sides.
2. Layer the Peaches:
Open the can of peaches and drain most of the syrup or juice (but reserve a small amount). Pour the peaches into the bottom of the slow cooker, spreading them out evenly.
3. Add the Cake Mix:
Evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the top of the peaches. Don’t mix it – just let the cake mix sit on top of the peaches. This will create a crumbly, cake-like topping once cooked.
4. Add the Butter:
Pour the melted butter over the cake mix, making sure to cover the top as evenly as possible. The butter will help the cake mix to rise and form a golden, slightly crisp topping.
5. Cook:
Cover the slow cooker and set it to low. Let the dessert cook for about 3 to 4 hours. Keep an eye on it after the first couple of hours to make sure it’s cooking evenly. The dessert is done when the top is golden and the peaches are bubbly.
