Jiffy Mix Peach Cobbler Recipe
As the aroma of warm peaches and sweet cinnamon fills my kitchen, I cannot help but reminisce about the first time I delved into the world of baking jiffy mix peach cobbler.
Equipment
- Refrigerator
- Oven
- Medium-sized casserole dish (approximately 7 inches by 11 inches)
- Large saucepan
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Large slotted spoon
- measuring cups and spoons
- Butter knife
- Baking sheet (optional)
- Oven mitts or kitchen towels (for handling hot dishes)
Ingredients
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup salted butter melted
- Some butter for greasing dish
- 1 box jiffy golden yellow cake mix 9 oz.
- 3/4 cup sugar divided
- 1 qt peaches frozen sliced, thawed
- 4 cups water
Instructions
- Place the frozen sliced peaches in the refrigerator overnight to thaw completely. This will ensure they are ready for use when you start baking.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking.
- Lightly grease the inside of a medium-sized casserole dish with butter. You can use a dish that measures approximately 7 inches by 11 inches.
- In a large saucepan, combine the thawed peaches and 1/2 cup of sugar. Gently stir to mix them together.
- Place the saucepan over medium to medium-low heat, add 4 cups of water and bring the mixture to a low boil. Allow it to simmer gently for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once the peach mixture has simmered, remove it from the heat.
- Use a large slotted spoon to lift the peaches from the juice and transfer them to the prepared baking dish. Be sure to reserve the juice for later use.
- Measure out 1/2 cup of the reserved peach juice and pour it evenly over the peaches in the baking dish.
- Sprinkle the Jiffy golden yellow cake mix evenly over the peaches in the baking dish.
- Evenly sprinkle 1/4 cup of sugar over the cake mix.
- Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon over the entire mixture in the baking dish.
- Use a butter knife to gently make swirls in the baking dish, combining some of the dry ingredients with the peach juices below.
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cobbler mixture in the baking dish.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake the cobbler at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 35 minutes.
- Bake until the top is golden brown and set, indicating that it's fully cooked.
- Once baked, remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
- Serve the delicious Jiffy mix peach cobbler warm, either on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
Notes
- For extra flavor, add a dash of nutmeg or ginger to the peach filling.
- To prevent the crust from becoming too soggy, place a baking sheet under the dish while baking.
- For a richer cobbler, substitute some of the melted butter with heavy cream in the topping.
- Serve leftovers reheated with a dollop of whipped cream for a decadent treat.
- Customize the recipe by incorporating other fruits like apples, berries, or even canned fruit cocktail.
