Ingredients

1/2 cup (120g) drained canned peach slices in natural juice
1/4 cup (60ml) coconut cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (180g) almond meal (ground almonds)
2 tablespoons stevia powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup (50g) dried peaches, chopped finely
2 tablespoons finely chopped pecans
1 tablespoon dried cornflower petals, optional

Peach glaze

1/2 cup (125ml) canned peach juice (see tips)
1/2 cup coconut milk powder
1 teaspoon cornflour
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Method

1
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F. Grease a 6-hole (¹⁄³ cup/80ml) non-stick doughnut pan.
2
Blend or process peaches, coconut cream, egg and vanilla until smooth. Add almond meal, stevia and baking powder; blend or process to combine. Spoon evenly into pan.
3
Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of a doughnut comes out clean. Stand doughnuts in pan for 5 minutes. Turn, top-side up, onto a wire rack over a tray.
4
Make peach glaze. Place all ingredients in a small heavy-based saucepan; whisk well until smooth. Bring to a simmer over high heat, whisking continuously until thick.
5
Dip doughnuts in warm glaze; sprinkle with dried peach, pecans and cornflower petals, if using. Cool on a wire rack.

Notes

You will need a 400g can of peach slices in natural juices; reserve 1/2 cup drained fruit for the doughnuts and 1/4 cup of the drained syrup for the glaze.
If you like, you can swap out canned peach slices for canned plum or pear slices
