Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler Recipe
Ingredients
For the Peach Filling:
- 4 cups fresh peaches (peeled, pitted, and sliced; or use frozen peaches)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Cobbler Topping:
- 12 Krispy Kreme glazed donuts (original recipe)
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick, melted)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
For Serving:
- Vanilla ice cream (optional)
- Whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Peach Filling:
- If using fresh peaches, peel, pit, and slice them. If using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid.
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix gently until the peaches are well coated. Set aside.
- Prepare the Donuts:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut each Krispy Kreme donut into quarters or smaller pieces, depending on your preference.
- Assemble the Peach Cobbler:
- In a 9×13-inch baking dish, spread the peach filling evenly across the bottom.
- Distribute the quartered Krispy Kreme donuts evenly over the top of the peach filling.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the donuts, ensuring they are well coated.
- In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and nutmeg (if using), then sprinkle it evenly over the top.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the donuts are golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
- Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
- Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Tips
- Peach Variations: If fresh peaches are out of season, canned peaches (drained) or frozen peaches work well, but adjust the sugar according to your taste and the sweetness of the peaches.
- Adding Flavor: For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of almond extract to the peach filling.
- Serving Suggestions: This dessert is delicious on its own but pairs wonderfully with ice cream or whipped cream for added richness.
Enjoy your Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler! This sweet and comforting dessert is perfect for gatherings, potlucks, or a cozy night in.
