Instructions
Let’s bring these flavors to life. Follow these steps to create your own Classic Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Donuts:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan lightly with butter.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter should be thick and slightly lumpy.
- Gently fold in the chopped peaches, being careful not to overmix, as this can make the donuts tough.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
- In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Swirl a small spoonful of this mixture into each donut cavity.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, sprinkle with cinnamon for an added touch of warmth and flavor.
These donuts are a labor of love, much like the recipes my mum and I would create in our cozy kitchen back in Devon. Remember, patience is key, and the reward is truly worth every moment.

Tips for Making the Best Classic Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Donuts
Creating the perfect donut is an art, and a few little tips can make all the difference:
1. Use ripe peaches: The sweeter and juicier, the better. This will infuse your donuts with natural sweetness.
2. Don’t overmix the batter: Mixing too much can lead to dense donuts. Stir until just combined for a light and fluffy texture.
3. Swirl with care: When adding the cream cheese mixture, a gentle swirl will ensure the flavor is evenly distributed without overpowering the peach.
Serving Suggestions and Pairings

These donuts are a treat on their own but pair beautifully with a few delightful accompaniments. I recommend serving them with a hot cup of Earl Grey tea or a chilled glass of peach iced tea. For a decadent brunch, pair with fresh fruit and a dollop of whipped cream. Each bite is a nod to those leisurely Devon afternoons, where tea time was a cherished ritual.
Storage and Reheating Tips
To keep your donuts fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you’d like to enjoy them beyond this, store them in the refrigerator for up to a week. For the best experience, reheat them gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes. This will bring back the warmth and softness, reminiscent of the freshly baked version.
