Ingredients:
For the Base:
- 6 Krispy Kreme doughnuts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or 2 cans of peaches in syrup, drained)
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Peaches
- If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them into thick wedges. If using canned peaches, drain the syrup and slice them into smaller pieces.
- Place the peaches into a large mixing bowl.
Step 2: Make the Peach Filling
- In the bowl with the peaches, add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
- Gently toss the ingredients together to coat the peaches.
- If the peach mixture seems too runny, stir in the cornstarch to help thicken the filling as it bakes.
Step 3: Assemble the Cobbler
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or casserole dish.
- Place the sliced Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the bottom of the dish, covering it in an even layer.
- Pour the peach mixture over the doughnuts, spreading it out to cover them completely.
Step 4: Add Butter and Cream
- Dot the top of the peach mixture with small pieces of butter.
- Pour the heavy cream evenly over the cobbler for added richness. You should have a slightly creamy sauce that will thicken as it bakes.
Step 5: Bake the Cobbler
- Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbly.
- The doughnuts will soak up some of the peach juices, creating a soft, pudding-like base.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
- Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
- Scoop warm servings into bowls, and add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for extra indulgence.
