Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temp
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (plus more for dusting)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 34 tbsp milk (or heavy cream)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup peach preserves (or peach jam)
  • 12 tbsp warm water (to thin)
  • Coarse sugar (for sparkle, optional)

Instructions

  1. Activate yeast: In a large bowl, stir warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Make dough: Mix in egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Add flour and salt. Knead 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. First rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and rise 60–90 minutes until doubled.
  4. Cut donuts: Roll dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut donut shapes (or rounds). Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  5. Second rise: Cover and rise 30–45 minutes until puffy.
  6. Make streusel: Mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Bake on a sheet at 350°F for 10–12 minutes until golden. Cool.
  7. Fry donuts: Heat oil to 350°F. Fry 1–2 minutes per side until golden. Drain on a rack.
  8. Glaze: Whisk powdered sugar, milk, vanilla, and salt until thick but pourable. Dip warm donuts and let set.
  9. Peach drizzle: Stir peach preserves with warm water until glossy and drizzle-able.
  10. Top: Sprinkle donuts with streusel and coarse sugar, then spoon/drizzle peach sauce over the top.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for best results.
