These baked donuts combine three desserts in one: a soft cake donut, a cheesecake-style cream cheese filling and a spiced peach topping like the inside of a cobbler. They are a fun weekend breakfast treat or a sweet addition to a brunch table.

Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Donuts

Preparation Steps

1Step 1

Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan.

2Step 2

Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk the milk, melted butter, egg and vanilla. Stir the wet mixture into the dry just until no flour shows; the batter will be thick.

3Step 3

Spoon or pipe the batter into the pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden and springy when pressed. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then on a rack. Repeat with any remaining batter.

4Step 4

For the peach topping, cook the peaches, sugar and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the peaches soften. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and simmer for 1 minute more, until thick and glossy. Let it cool.

5Step 5

Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth and spoon into a piping bag with a small round tip.

6Step 6

Poke a small hole into the side of each cooled donut with a knife or the piping tip and pipe in the cheesecake filling until the donut feels heavier.

7Step 7

Whisk the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla into a smooth, thick glaze. Dip the top of each donut, let the excess drip off, then spoon a little peach topping on each one.

Tips & Variations

  • Do not overmix the batter; a few small lumps keep the donuts tender.
  • Canned or thawed frozen peaches work well when fresh peaches are out of season, as long as they are well drained.
  • Because of the cream cheese filling, store the donuts covered in the fridge and eat them within 2 days.
