Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (16.3 oz / 462 g) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1 can (15 oz / 425 g) peach slices in syrup, drained and chopped
- 8 oz (226 g) cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- ¼ cup crushed graham crackers
- ¼ cup glaze (made with powdered sugar and milk)
- Pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
- Peach Compote Preparation: Simmer peach slices with brown sugar and cinnamon, creating a glossy sauce by adding cornstarch slurry. Allow the compote to cool completely, concentrating its fruity essence.
- Cheesecake Filling Creation: Whip cream cheese until silky, blending powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Fold in heavy cream to achieve a light, airy texture. Transfer to a piping bag with a filling tip.
- Donut Frying Process: Heat oil to 350F. Shape biscuit dough into donuts by removing centers. Fry until golden-brown, then drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Filling and Topping Assembly: Once cooled, inject donuts with cheesecake filling. Top generously with prepared peach compote, ensuring even flavor distribution.
- Final Garnishing: Drizzle with glaze, sprinkle crushed graham cracker crumbs, and dust with ground cinnamon to complete the decadent dessert.
Notes
- Control Oil Temperature: Maintain a steady 350F for even, golden-brown donuts without burning or undercooking. Use a digital thermometer for precise monitoring.
- Prevent Soggy Donuts: Drain fried donuts on wire racks instead of paper towels to keep crispy exterior and prevent moisture buildup.
- Filling Technique: Pipe cheesecake filling slowly and steadily, rotating the donut to ensure even distribution without overfilling or creating air pockets.
- Customize Dietary Needs: Swap biscuit dough with gluten-free alternatives, use low-fat cream cheese, or replace sugar with monk fruit sweetener for health-conscious variations.
