FAQs
Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use canned peaches. Be sure to drain them well to avoid excess moisture, which could make the dough too wet.
How do I know when the biscuits are fully baked?
The biscuits should be golden brown on top and firm to the touch. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Ingredients
Fruit
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
Dough
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into pieces
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk or buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
- Prepare the Peaches: Peel and dice fresh peaches into small pieces. Set aside.
- Make the Biscuit Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the milk, stirring just until the dough comes together; do not overwork.
- Combine Peaches and Dough: Gently fold the diced peaches into the biscuit dough, ensuring an even distribution without crushing the fruit.
- Shape the Biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of the peach dough onto a buttered baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving warm, optionally with extra butter or honey.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid excess juice making the dough soggy.
- Butter should be cold to create flaky biscuits.
- Do not overmix the dough to keep biscuits tender.
- Optionally, add cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat before serving.
