5-Ingredient Baked Peach Dump Dessert
This is an incredibly simple, rustic dessert where the butter, flour, and sweetener create a crisp, cobbler-like crust over sweet, jammy peaches. No added leavening, eggs, or milk—just your five ingredients.
Oven Temperature: 350°F (175°C)
Bake Time: 50–60 minutes
Serves: 6–8
Your 5 Ingredients
-
4 cups frozen raw peach slices (rock-hard, unthawed)
-
1 cup zero-calorie sweetener (granular, e.g., erythritol or stevia blend)
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
1 tsp ground cinnamon
-
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
1. Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Butter or lightly grease an 8×8-inch (or similar 2-quart) baking dish.
2. Layer the Peaches
Spread the rock-hard frozen peaches directly into the prepared dish. No thawing needed.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sweetener, and cinnamon until evenly combined.
4. Create the Topping
Pour the melted butter into the flour mixture. Stir with a fork until it forms a crumbly, damp, sand-like mixture. (It won’t be a batter—it’ll look like coarse crumbs.)
5. Assemble
Sprinkle the buttery crumb mixture evenly over the frozen peaches, covering them as best you can.
6. Bake
Bake uncovered for 50–60 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach juices are thick and bubbling around the edges. If the top starts browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil for the last 15 minutes.
7. Rest and Serve
Let the dish rest for at least 15–20 minutes before scooping. This is crucial—the juices will thicken as it cools. Serve warm.
A Note on Your Specific Sweetener
Since this is a true dump cake with no leavening, the granular sweetener provides structure and helps the topping crisp up. If your sweetener is pure erythritol, the topping will be crisp and crunchy. If it’s a stevia blend that measures like sugar, you’ll get a more traditional crumble. Both work well; just avoid liquid sweeteners in this exact formula.
Enjoy your warm, simple peach dessert—it’s perfect with a splash of cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Let me know how it turns out.
