Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine flour, C&H Granulated Sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until the butter is the size of peas. 

Step 3

In a small cup, mix lemon zest, 1 egg, and cold cream. Add all at once to the flour mixture stirring until moistened. Add the diced peaches.

Step 4

Dump the dough into a well-floured surface. Knead the dough 3 or 4 times and form into a ball. Press into a circle, about 1-inch thick. Cut scones with a 3-inch round cookie cutter. Place scones on the prepared baking sheet. Form leftover dough into a ball and press into a circle, cut additional scones and place on baking sheet.

Step 5

Prepare an egg wash with the remaining egg and water. Brush the scones with the egg wash and sprinkle with C&H Turbinado Sugar. 

Step 6

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown and scones are firm to the touch. Remove from oven and allow the scones to cool down. 

Additional Tip


Prepare a glaze to drizzle over your scones by stirring together 2 cups of C&H Powdered Sugar and 1 to 2 teaspoons of milk. 

1 large peach will yield about 1 cup of diced peaches. If you are using fresh peaches, dice them and freeze before use. This allows for a colder dough, producing flakier scones.
