Ginger Peach Donuts

Peach season is about a month long and with that means I am in the mood for some fresh donuts! Well any season is the right time for donuts but that’s not just me right?

This recipe is quick and easy and makes an even dozen of peachy deliciousness.

Grease two mini donut pans with margarine or shortening generously and set aside.

Take one peach and cut it in half.

One half dice up into small pieces and slice the other half. Set both halves aside.

Then mix the very soft margarine and sugar together.

In another bowl mix all the dry ingredients together.

Now add the remaining wet ingredients and blend together. At this stage the “dough” may look very separated but don’t worry once the dry ingredients are added the consistency changes dramatically.

Pour about a third of the dry ingredients into the wet ones and mix well. Continue until all the ingredients are blended well.

Then take the diced peaches and fold those into the dough.

Take a pastry bag and fill the dough into it.

Pipe the dough into the donut wells evenly.

Bake for fifteen to eighteen minutes.

Let cool for five minutes in pans then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.

While they are cooling make the icing. I added a bit of ginger to really give it some extra impact.

Use the peach slices you set aside and place on top.

Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for up to five days.
