Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Grater
  • Wire rack

Ingredients
  

For the Scones

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), frozen
  • 1/3 cup peach Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh peaches (about 1 peach), diced

For the Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate the frozen butter and add to dry mixture. Use a fork or pastry blender to cut in the butter.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together yogurt, cream, egg, and vanilla until well blended. Add to the dry mixture and use a rubber spatula to fold the ingredients in until it starts to come together in large clumps. Stir in the diced fresh peaches.
  • Gently knead mixture by hand (in the mixing bowl) just a few times until it comes together. Try not to handle the dough too much.
  • Dust a clean surface with flour and drop dough onto surface. Gently pat and shape into an 8-inch round. Cut into 8 wedges then transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden, about 16 – 18 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top.
  • For the glaze: Add powdered sugar to a mixing bowl with 1 Tbsp milk and stir until smooth. Add additional milk, if needed.

Notes
