“I made this and it was wonderful!!!!”
– Tamara
Slow Cooker Peach Cobbler is the kind of dessert you can make anytime, especially when unexpected guests show up. It’s warm, comforting, and always a hit—plus, it comes together with pantry staples you probably already have. Just set it and forget it until it’s time to scoop and serve.
Key Ingredients
Vanilla Cake Mix: This is the perfect easy topping for crockpot peach cobbler – it’s all measured for you!
Salted Butter: One stick of butter will be cubed and layered on top of the cake mix and the pie filling.
Peach Pie Filling: You’ll need two cans of peach pie filling to balance out the amount cobbler topping. I prefer peach pie filling over canned peaches or frozen peaches, for it’s already thick and sweetened.
How to make Slow Cooker Peach Cobbler
- Add the peach pie filling to the crockpot and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the cake mix over the top and add butter pieces.
- Cook until the topping is set and lightly browned on the edges.
Tips & Variations
Cake mix change: Although this recipe calls for vanilla cake mix, you can use what you have on hand. Yellow cake mix, spice cake mix, and white cake mix are all suitable substitutions.
Freshen it up: If you want to use fresh or frozen peaches, you will need to sprinkle with sugar and cornstarch.
Canned Peaches: Drain off half of the juices before using this recipe.
Cooking Tip: Keep the lid on for the entire cooking time so the center sets.
Add Crunch: Chopped walnuts can be added if desired, sprinkle on top along with the butter.
How to serve Slow Cooker Peach Cobbler
Creamy Topping: One of the most popular ways to serve this peach cobbler is with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream topped with caramel sauce.
Garnish it: If you want to garnish it with a few toppings, add a dash of cinnamon and sugar, and any nut of your choice, or caramel sauce.
Should I add the cake mix ingredients from the box?
No, for this recipe you will use the cake mix dry over the peach cobbler. The butter in the recipe will create a cobbler layer.
How to store?
This peach cobbler lasts about 3 days in the fridge or up to 6 months in the freezer. It’s great to have on hand for desserts all week.

I made this and it was wonderful!!!!
Tasted great. Took to work as a dessert for a work feed. It all disappeared. To me… it was too sweet and too carb heavy. Not diabetic friendly. Wish I could have found the sugar free pie filling, but it was not in stock
On the ingredients in the text, you say “Salted Butter: One sticks of butter will be cubed and layered between the cake mix and the pie filling.” But in Step 3 you say to add the butter on top. Can you please clarify which one is correct?
It goes on top, thank you for bringing that to my attention.
I normally make peach cobbler from scratch but had time constraints and need to be cooking dinner while the cobbler was in the crockpot. I followed the recipe exactly and the top never got hard or crispy even after cooking as instructed. After 4 hours I ended up taking the top cake part off with a big spatula and put it under the broiler. It did crisp up better there. This has a lot of the “gummy” cake mix left and the peaches were in a very liquid juice. But once I stirred up the the whole thing it mixed in and maid the juicy part much thicker. I served it with some of the crispy top from under the broiler broken up on top of the peaches and added vanilla bean ice cream on top. It had wonderful flavor but not the traditional peach cobbler we are used to. Next time I will do the peaches in the crockpot and make a biscuit type cobbler in the oven to add on top when serving.
Can fresh peaches be used? If so will you add sugar to the peaches?
Yes, if I was only doing fresh peaches I would sprinkle with sugar and a touch of cornstarch.
Thanks you.
I tired it but my peaches should’ve been cooked some first. I added the cornstarch. They were thick enough. But the peaches wasn’t quit done. But i would fix this dish again. Thank you.
What size of slow cooker are you using?
Also, how would it work if I was to double the recipe?
I used a 6 quart slow cooker. If you double the recipe it may not set in the middle.
I just made this and it’s quite good. Is the cake portion supposed to be mushy? I’ve never made or eaten cobbler before.Otherwise, I think it’s a great, ways recipe.
It should be a little mushy, but not wet.
This is a nice versatile recipe. If you used cherry pie filling you could turn it into a black forest cobbler using chocolate cake mix. Could also make it an apple pie cobbler using apple pie filling and spice cake mix. 🙂
I saw this recipe right after looking at your His and Hers Cobbler recipe. I’d like to try doing the same thing using this easier recipe with peach and apple or peach and a berry pie filling. I’m curious as to which cobbler recipe has the tastier topping.
They are both equally good! Sorry I’m no help.
Wonder how it would turn out using canned peaches in juice. I have a lot of those to use up so may give it a shot. My go to oven peach cobbler is just batter with the can of peaches poured over the top and it’s fantastic so I’m thinking it could work for this too. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
I would definitely add some cornstarch to the peaches.
How much Corn Starch ? I accidently got canned peaches.
2 Tablespoons will work, I often drain off half the juices.
