Ever wondered if you could make a peach cobbler in Instant Pot instead of turning on your oven?? We’ve got the instructions for you here! An easy fruit dump cake made in under 20 minutes and ready to enjoy any time of year. One of our favorite sweet Instant Pot recipes here on The Typical Mom blog. (affiliate links present)

Ninja Foodi Peach Cobbler

You can make it as an easy Ninja Foodi recipe or in your Crockpot Express too. Any brand works really. For the Foodi you will use the lid that is not attached to pressure cook the ingredients under high pressure.

We made this dump peach cobbler quite a while ago but everyone asked how they could do it in their multi cooker too. SO we are here to help!

Yes we love fresh fruit like we used in our air fryer peaches but you can’t always find those year round. Using canned peaches it is perfect to make during the Fall as well as the Summertime. We sure have a sweet tooth over here, can you tell?

If you are new to pressure cooking we have a lot of easy one pot meal recipes for you here. To begin with let’s start with a few basic tips:

For reference, this is the model I have (a 6 quart) and use for all recipe creations.

If you’ve already bookmarked our Instant Pot dessert recipes than you probably had a clue. If you’re new to our site, welcome!! Here are the ingredients you’ll need for this peach cobbler recipe:

Instant Pot Peach Cobbler Ingredients

  1. I HIGHLY suggest using a non stick pot for this and all other recipes
  2. Canned peaches slices, or fresh, peeled and sliced
  3. Cake mix
    1. vanilla or spice cake mix work well, white is featured here
    2. we used spice with apples if you’d like to try that as well
  4. Butter, melted or sliced
  5. Cinnamon
  6. Brown sugar
  7. Cornstarch
  8. You want some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream to serve on top too.

Is it better to use canned or frozen peaches for cobbler?

That depends on your preference and cooking method. The difference between the two will be the texture. Frozen will hold up a bit better as they take more time to get to tender so if you want a bit of chunky when served I would use those.

Can you use fresh peaches?

I have actually baked this fresh peach dump cake in the oven but not in this pot. The difference with this is there is very little juice that you will get even when cooked.

I have made this a few times using different cake mixes and it’s fun to mix it up a bit. I might say white is our favorite though. You could use white, yellow or spice with this fruit. Mixed fruit cocktail could be used instead with strawberry or even a lemon version. Like I said above in the ingredient list, I REALLY encourage you to buy an Instant Pot non stick pot. Not only will it eliminate the messy clean up, but it will also help avoid the burn notice.

Many times your pot will trigger a false notice and ever since I bought this ceramic pot I haven’t ever experienced that. It also makes it so that you don’t have to add any oil really when sauteeing meats.

We have shared a ton of dump cake recipes on our site over the years because I just love easy and delish. If you’re not familiar with this type of dessert, it is well shall I say messy. Don’t expect to slice it, you just scoop into a bowl and enjoy as is.

How to Make Peach Dump Cake in a Pressure Cooker

  • Drain the juice from your cans of peaches and pour into your pot.
  • Pour sugar on top of the peaches. (could add a bit of brown sugar too)
  • Whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth, pour that in too.
  • Now you’re going to make a cobbler crumble for the top with melted butter and cake mix.
  • Sprinkle that on top of your fruit.
  • Select high pressure cooking for 10 minutes followed by a quick release.
  • Serve immediately for best results.

Like our popular cherry pineapple dump cake recipe, it won’t be super pretty served like a cake. Don’t worry about that!! Just follow these simple instructions:

What’s the difference between a cobbler and a crisp?

They really are quite similar with a few variations. Cobbler is typically is a baked fruit dessert with a thick biscuit or pie dough topping. A crumble is similar but is a baked fruit dessert with a layer of topping Really I kinda’ call them what I call them. 😉 They’re kinda’ one in the same for us, but I think cobblers are a bit sweeter and easier to throw together.

Can you prepare peach cobbler ahead of time?

If you’re making fresh peach dump cake in the oven I actually prefer it made earlier in the day. It gives the dish a bit of time to sit and thicken/firm up. With this Instant Pot peach cobbler I would suggest serving it warm and fresh though, especially if you aren’t using a non stick pot. It will be a nightmare if you use the pot it came with because it will stick like mad as it sits.

Can you leave peach cobbler out overnight?

If you’re going to eat it within a day of making it, you don’t need to refrigerate it. Just spoon it into a dish like this, cover it, and leave it at room temperature instead. Refrigerating it will dry the dish out a bit, but it is totally up to you really.

Can peach cobbler be reheated?

It really is best enjoyed warm, right after it’s baked. If you’re reheating put into a microwave safe dish. Heat in 30 second increments stirring in between until it is as hot as you’d like. To reheat in the oven, remove it from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes or until warmed through.

If you want a bit of tang sprinkle a bit of lemon juice on this once it’s done and top with whipped topping!

  1. Kept getting the burn message like others said after following recipe exactly. It ended up ruined. I wonder if it needs more liquid at the bottom to work.

  2. This recipe doesn’t work. I followed it exactly and got the food burn message on my instant pot.

  3. Your recipe at the bottom of the post says to do 10 minutes high pressure. Up above in the post it says 15 minutes high pressure. Just wanted to check and see what one is right. Thanks.
