Make use of the last peaches of the season and say goodbye to Summer with these gorgeous and delicious BAKED Peach Jelly Donuts – Baked cake donuts filled and glazed with a vegan peach jelly and finally topped with crumbled pecan brittle.
Mirror glazes are raging all over the Internet and while most use gelatin, my version uses Vegan-friendly Agar agar – same mirror-like shine, gelatin-free! Never heard about Agar agar? Find out here.
The baked cake donuts require a donut pan or mold – I bought mine off Amazon. It’s non-stick, and the donuts released from the pan without any effort. The top (the side not in contact with the pan) remains white and the underside turns a beautiful golden-brown, just like a regular fried donut! And it’s a lot healthier too!
The jelly is just a variation of this Mango and coconut jelly recipe. Which means, you can make this jelly donut with any fruit you like! How awesome is that!!!!
Once set, cut up into cubes and puree the jelly into a smooth paste to fill the donut with. The leftover purée can be reheated over the stove to form the glaze to dip the donuts in.
The crumbled pecan brittle adds a lovely, sweet crunch to the otherwise soft donut – totally optional of course! I actually had some at home, and if you don’t – just leave it plain or top with toasted nuts! They’re delicious either way!
When you make these (which I really think you SHOULD!), be sure to SHARE YOUR PHOTOS with me through Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. I’d love to see what you cook from here and will share it with pride on my social media feeds.
