Description
These glazed peach scones taste like a peach pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and they are anything but dry.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups + 2 tbsp (255 g) all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (75 g) brown sugar
- 1 tbsp (15 g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, cubed and cold
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy whipping cream, plus more for brushing
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) sour cream
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (85 g) fresh peaches, diced
Vanilla Glaze
- 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) vanilla extract
- 1-3 tbsp (15-45 ml) heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Once combined, cut in the butter with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Whisk together heavy cream, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
- Stir in the peaches, and mix until just combined.
- On a well-floured surface, turn out the scone dough and pat into a small disk that’s about a 1/2″ thick. Cut into 6-8 slices, and transfer to the baking sheet. Brush each scone with just a bit of heavy cream.
- Bake for 16-18 minutes, or just until golden brown. Allow to cool.
Glaze
- Whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 tbsp of heavy cream. If the glaze is too thick, continue adding in heavy cream, one 1 tbsp at a time, until it has reached the desired consistency. Pour over warm scones and enjoy!
