Servings: 8 large scones
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a mixing bowl, mix all dry ingredients together.
- Add in cold butter chunks and quickly work into the dough, we don't want the butter to melt.
- Add the diced peaches and stir.
- Add the eggs, vanilla and milk and stir dough together.
- Grease a cookie sheet or line one with parchment paper and flip dough out of bowl onto the cookie sheet.
- Slice into wedges, 8 large or 16 small and slightly spread apart on the cookie sheet so they can rise while baking.
- Bake for 22-24 minutes or until they look cooked and are slightly golden on top.
- For the glaze: mix powdered sugar, milk, salt and vanilla together to form glaze. Drizzle glaze on top of scone after baking. *If you want a flaky glaze, drizzle glaze onto scones then return to the oven for 2 minutes more and glaze will buckle making a flaky glaze.
