Yield: This recipe makes 6 doughnuts. You'll need a standard 6-well doughnut pan — a muffin tin won't give you the same shape or bake time.
Technique: Fill each doughnut pan well only about two-thirds full. Overfilling prevents the batter from rising properly and leaves you with a dense, undercooked center.
Measuring: Sift the cake flour before measuring. Unsifted cake flour can compact in the cup and make the donuts heavier than they should be.
Storage: Peach donuts are best served the day they're made. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day. For the best texture, store unglazed and dip in fresh glaze just before serving.
