Here’s how you can make a fun twist on Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler—a sweet, gooey dessert that uses Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts as the base instead of traditional biscuit topping. The doughnuts soak up custard or become a soft, cobbler‑like crust while the peaches get warm and syrupy. (Somonday)
🍑 Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler (Homemade)
🛒 Ingredients
- Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnuts — cubed (about 6–8)
- Fresh peaches (peeled & sliced) or canned/frozen peaches — ~4 cups
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1–2 tsp ground cinnamon
- A pinch of nutmeg
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch (to thicken peach sauce)
- Heavy cream (about 1 cup) — optional for creamier version
- Milk or evaporated milk + 2 eggs (optional custard mix) (Somonday)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Prepare the peach filling:
In a pot over medium heat, combine peaches with brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook until peaches soften and juices start to form (~8–10 min). (Somonday) - Thicken the sauce:
Mix cornstarch with a little water and stir into the peach mixture to make it slightly thickened. (Somonday) - Soak the doughnuts:
Slice or tear the doughnuts into pieces. Option A: soak them briefly in a custard mixture made with heavy cream (or milk + evaporated milk) and beaten eggs + a bit of sugar and cinnamon for extra richness. Option B: skip the custard and just use them straight. (Superfashion.us) - Assemble:
Spread the cooked peach mixture in a greased baking dish. Arrange the soaked or plain doughnut pieces over the peaches. (Somonday) - Bake:
Bake at ~250 °F (about 120 °C) for 20–30 minutes, until the top is golden and the peaches are bubbly. (Lady Recipes) - Rest & serve:
Let cool ~10 min. Serve warm—great topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream! (Somonday)
🍨 Serving Tips
- Scoop a generous portion while warm; the peaches will be juicy and the doughnut topping soft and comforting. (Yobrt)
- A drizzle of caramel or sprinkle of nutmeg on top makes it extra decadent. (Somonday)
