Instructions
- Prepare the Peach Cobbler Filling:

- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Modify the biscuit dough into donut shapes and fry for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels and allow to cool slightly.
- Assemble the Donuts:
- Cut each donut in half horizontally.
- Layer the bottom half with cheesecake filling, then top with peach cobbler filling.
- Top the Donuts:
- Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers.
- Drizzle with glaze and finish with a dusting of cinnamon.
Tips
- Make-Ahead: Prepare the fillings a day in advance and store them in the refrigerator.
- Air Fryer Option: For a healthier alternative, cook the donuts in an air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Notes
- Gluten-Free Version: Use gluten-free biscuit dough and ensure all other ingredients are gluten-free.
- Seasonal Fruit Filling: Substitute peaches with apples or berries depending on the season.
