Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1½ cups buttermilk
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1½ cups diced peaches
- ¼ cup peach juice or syrup
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tbsp milk
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Pour melted butter into an 8×8-inch baking dish and tilt to coat the bottom. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
- Pour in cold buttermilk and gently stir until just combined. The batter should be thick and a little lumpy—don’t overmix.
- Gently fold diced peaches into the batter, distributing without mashing them.
- Pour batter over the melted butter in the dish. Spread it evenly with a spatula. Drizzle peach juice or syrup over the top.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes on the middle rack until golden brown and set in the center. Edges should be crisp with bubbling butter.
- While baking, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla into a glaze. Drizzle over the warm biscuits right out of the oven. Serve warm.
