Peach Crumb Cake with Yellow Cake Mix - made with canned peaches and a buttery crumb topping, this is another one of my peach dessert recipes that's perfect anytime of year!
Let me show you how to take a box of cake mix and turn it into a delicious dessert everyone is going to love.
I love desserts to make with canned peaches because you can enjoy them year round. You don't have to bake with peaches only when they're in season as long as you have a can or two of peaches in your pantry.
Which is why I include canned peaches or fruit on my Ten Items in your Pantry Checklist and Printable.
Ever since I was a little girl I have loved crumb cake. I sometimes would eat the crumb topping and leave behind the cake. However, I wouldn't do it with this Peach Crumb Cake with Yellow Cake Mix recipe!
This recipe is very similar to my Blueberry Crumb Cake. I take a shortcut with this recipe and use a boxed cake mix, which is another one of my Cake Mix Baking Hacks. Take shortcuts when you when baking for your family!

FREQUENTLY ASKED RECIPE QUESTIONS
Over-baking a cake, whether it's from a box mix or from scratch, will cause the cake to dry out. Remember all ovens bake differently so set a timer to start checking if the cake is done around 5 minutes before the recipe says it should be baked completely.
Absolutely! Try swapping out the canned peaches with canned blueberry pie filling or even cherry pie filling.
