Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.75 cups heavy cream (cold)
• 1.5 cups ripe peaches (peeled, pitted, and diced)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar (optional, for sprinkling)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with small pea-sized bits of butter.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the cold heavy cream and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the cream mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until a rough dough begins to form.

Step 6

Fold in the diced peaches gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed without overworking the dough.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Be careful not to overwork the dough, as this can make the biscuits tough.

Step 8

Use a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out biscuits. Press straight down without twisting to ensure the biscuits rise evenly. Re-roll scraps as necessary to cut additional biscuits.

Step 9

Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

Step 10

If desired, brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with heavy cream and sprinkle with turbinado sugar for a golden, sweet crust.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 12

Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm on their own or with butter, whipped cream, or a drizzle of honey!
