What’s better than a warm Krispy Kreme doughnut, straight from the oven? Not much. But Krispy Kreme glazed peach pies come pretty darn close.
You read that right. It’s officially peach season!
What’s in This Peachy Keen Treat?
The Krispy Kreme pies are handheld turnovers with a flaky pastry crust and fruity filling, kind of like the sweet desserts at McDonald’s or Popeye’s. Nothing says summer like peach, so the hand pies are packed with real peach filling.
The added bonus with Krispy Kreme pies is that you can have one any time you like, as long as you have a box stashed in your pantry. And unlike the fast-food competitors, these hand pies are covered in the same glaze as Krispy Kreme doughnuts, so it’s practically like two treats in one!
From down-home peach desserts like pie and cobbler to fresh takes like peach salsa, bring the taste of summer to your table with fresh peach recipes.
Where Can I Find Glazed Peach Pies?
Yes, Krispy Kreme shops just rolled out dessert-inspired doughnuts—banana pudding, coconut cake and Mississippi mud pie. But this glazed peach pie can only be found at your local supermarket. You can pick up a box for around $2 a pop.
Boxes of Krispy Kreme glazed peach pies have been spotted at Kroger stores, and you can also find them listed on Walmart’s website. You might luck out if you pay a visit to your local grocery store while they’re still in season!
