Equipment

  • Donut pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Wire rack
  • Whisk
  • Spoon or pastry bag or zip-top bag

Ingredients
  

Peach Donuts

  • 2 cups (250 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (220 grams) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • ½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt full fat
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 heaping cup fresh peaches skinned, pitted, and diced small (2 to 3 medium peaches)

Crumble Topping

  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prep the oven and pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a donut pan with butter or cooking spray.
  • Step 2: Mix the Crumble Topping: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger and a pinch of salt.
  • Step 3: Add Butter: Add melted butter and use a fork or clean hands to mix until crumbly. It should have the texture of wet sand. Set aside.
  • Step 4: Combine dry ingredients
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
  • Step 5: Mix wet ingredients
  • In a mixing bowl or measuring bowl, whisk eggs, sour cream, and milk until smooth and creamy.
  • Step 6: Combine batter: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently.
  • Step 7: Fold in peaches: Gently fold in peaches until evenly distributed.
  • Step 8: Fill the donut pan: Spoon batter directly into the donut pan or into a pastry bag or zip-top bag with the tip snipped off. Pipe into greased donut form cavities, filling each about ¾ full.
  • Step 9: Add crumble and bake: Sprinkle the crumble topping over the top of the dough. Place on a baking sheet for stability and bake for 13–15 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Step 10: Cool and enjoy: Let cool in the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Donut Storage Instructions

Let donuts cool completely before storing. Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.  For longer storage, wrap individually in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months. To refresh day-old donuts, warm them on a baking sheet in a 300°F oven for 3-5 minutes.

Tips for Peach Donut Success

  • Use sweet peaches that are just ripe, not overly soft.
  • Let your ingredients come to room temperature for the best texture.
  • Don’t overmix your donut batter—that leads to dense donuts.
  • Don't overfill the donut pan – this can cause overflow and uneven baking.
  • If you don't have a pastry bag, use a large zip-top bag with the corner cut off.  Make sure the hole is large enough to accommodate the diced peaches.
  • Let donuts cool almost completely before removing from the pan to prevent breaking.
