Ingredients
Scale
- 6 to 8 peaches, sliced, or about 2 bags frozen peach slices
- 2 dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, divided
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 2 large eggs
- Nonstick baking spray, as needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick baking spray.
- Add peaches, 1/2 cup brown sugar, butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and nutmeg to a saucepan over medium heat.
- Cook the peach mixture for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until the butter melts and the peaches release their juices.
- Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl, then stir the slurry into the peach mixture.
- Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often, until the peach sauce thickens slightly.
- Whisk heavy whipping cream, evaporated milk, eggs, remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a mixing bowl until smooth.
- Add the cut donuts to the custard mixture and gently toss for about 5 minutes, just until the donuts soak up some custard.
- Spread the warm peach mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Arrange the soaked donut pieces over the peaches, leaving behind most extra custard unless any donut pieces look dry.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top looks golden, the center feels set, and the peach filling bubbles around the edges.
- Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes before serving warm.
Notes
- Day-old glazed donuts work best because they absorb custard without falling apart.
- Do not pour all extra custard into the baking dish, or the cobbler may turn too soft.
- If using canned peaches, drain them well and reduce the brown sugar slightly.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or caramel sauce.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
