INGREDIENTS :

For the Scones:

• ¾ c light cream
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 3 tbsp granulated sugar
• 1 c peaches, peeled and cut into ½” dice (approximately 1 ½ peach)
• ½ tsp salt
• 5 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into ¼-inch cubes
• 2 c all-purpose flour, plus a little extra for flouring your work surface

For the Glaze:

• ¼ tsp vanilla
• 2–3 tbsp light cream
• 1 ½ c confectioner’s sugar

DIRECTIONS :

For the Scones:

1. Prepare the oven and preheat it to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
2. Line the inside of a baking sheet with a baking mat.
3. Add salt, baking powder, sugar, and 2 cups flour into a large bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated. Whisk in the butter until well blended. Add the peaches, then toss to coat.
4. Stir in the light cream until the mixture becomes smooth.
5. Sprinkle flour onto a flat surface and lay the dough on it. Shape it into a rectangle, then slice it into 6 squares. Slice each square into two. You should get 12 of them. Lay them onto the prepared baking sheet.
6. Place the baking sheet in preheated oven and bake for about 13 minutes or until each dough becomes golden brown. Let them cool at room temperature.

For the Glaze:

1. Add vanilla extract, 2 tbsp of light cream, and confectioners’ sugar into a mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well blended.
2. Brush each scone with the glaze and allow them to rest for a few minutes before serving.
3. Serve and enjoy!
