Lemon Olive Oil Cake Donuts with Cinnamon Sugar Peaches

Aryn

These lemon olive oil cake donuts with cinnamon sugar peaches are seriously delicious! They taste like a sophisticated and super fancy peach cobbler but they are easy to make and will knock the socks off of your guests! I top mine with vanilla ice cream and salted caramel sauce. I also dusted mine with a little powdered sugar and cinnamon. It can also be made into a large cake, baking instructions for that are below. So yummy!

I created with recipe for a small cooking class I was teaching. The theme for the class was summer harvest and peaches were just in season so I really wanted to celebrate them by making this recipe! Everyone at the class loved them!
