This old-fashioned peach dump cake is a simple dessert you’ll absolutely love. For this recipe, we used canned peaches along with cinnamon and cake mix to create a bubbly and warm dessert.
When buying the cake mix at the grocery store, it is best to pick one that doesn’t have pudding mix in it; check the label to make sure.
