Here’s a rich, indulgent Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler—a sweet Southern-style dessert made with soft glazed doughnuts instead of traditional biscuit topping.
🍑 Krispy Kreme Peach Cobbler
Ingredients
- 6–8 glazed doughnuts (cut into chunks)
- 4 cups sliced peaches (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust if using canned peaches)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (mixed with 2 tbsp water)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional for extra richness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven:
Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 or similar baking dish. - Make the peach filling:
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Cook 5–8 minutes until peaches soften and release juices.
Stir in cornstarch slurry and cook until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and add vanilla. - Layer the cobbler:
Spread the peach mixture into the baking dish.
Scatter doughnut chunks evenly over the top.
Drizzle heavy cream lightly over the doughnuts if using. - Bake:
Bake 25–30 minutes until bubbly and golden on top. - Rest & serve:
Let cool 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Tips
- For extra caramel flavor, drizzle caramel sauce over the top before baking.
- If using canned peaches in syrup, reduce added sugar slightly.
- For a custard-style version, whisk 1 egg with the cream and pour lightly over doughnuts before baking.
This dessert is soft, gooey, buttery, and sweet with that signature glazed-doughnut richness.
If you’d like, I can also give you a slow cooker version that turns out incredibly soft and syrupy.
