Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cold butter (1 stick), cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup peach butter
  • 3/4 cup milk or buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare your oven and baking sheet: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar to evenly distribute all ingredients and remove any lumps.
  3. Cut in the cold butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until it forms pea-sized crumbs, which is key to achieving flaky and tender biscuits.
  4. Add the peach butter and milk: Gently mix in the peach butter, then pour in the milk or buttermilk, folding just until the dough comes together; be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
  5. Shape and bake: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface, knead lightly, then pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds and place them on your prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake until golden: Bake the biscuits for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops turn lightly golden and the biscuits have risen beautifully.

Notes

  • Use cold butter to create flaky, tender layers in your biscuits.
  • Do not overmix the dough to avoid tough biscuits by developing too much gluten.
  • Opt for homemade or high-quality peach butter for the richest flavor.
  • Chill biscuits briefly in the refrigerator after cutting to help them rise more evenly.
  • For a shiny golden top, lightly brush the biscuits with milk or egg wash before baking.
