Can I use fresh peaches in this recipe?

Nope, for this one we need the ones in the can, and the syrup they come with. But I hear you on fresh peaches, so here's a butterscotch peach pie that has your name on it! And the very best upside down peach cake that I know!

Can I leave out the walnuts?

You absolutely can, and/or you can switch in your favorite kind of chopped nuts if you want to.

Can this recipe be made ahead?

It definitely can be made earlier in the day, and it's the kind of recipe that travels well if you are bringing it somewhere.

Ingredients

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350.
Layer your crumble ingredients in a 9 x 13 pan in the following order: first, one 25 ounce can of peaches with their syrup, followed by one 15.25 ounce package of yellow cake mix sprinkled on top of the peaches, 1 stick of butter that you have cut into 16 pieces dropped on top of the cake mix, one cup of brown sugar sprinkled over the whole thing and finally a half cup of chopped walnuts.
Do your best to add each of these ingredients all around the pan as best you can, but don’t stir! Each one just gets scattered on top of the one before.
Bake for 40 minutes.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream. Or eat it with a spoon right out of the baking dish.

Notes

- Cake Mix: You can use any yellow cake mix you like, just make sure it is in a 15.25 ounce box.

- Canned Peaches: You can also use any canned peaches you like…just make sure they are the ones in syrup, as that is key to the magic of this recipe

- Walnuts: You can leave them out, or swap in a different kind of nuts (hello there, pecans!) if you like.
