Lemon Glazed Doughnuts with Peaches

In sharing these recipe ideas, Martinez wanted to show the two sides of her baking style. One is nostalgic and one guest-friendly, meaning there aren’t too many complicated flavors.

“Doughnuts with peaches is a super Southern flavor. We use local peaches, which taste so good on their own. Adding thyme brightens it up and gives it a new flavor,” she said. “There’s no exact recipe because the fruit tastes different every time you make it and with every season, so I’m always adjusting and modifying the combination to best suit the fruit’s flavor.”

Martinez encourages at-home chefs to play with fruit that’s in season when baking at home.
