Equipment
- oven
- Mixing bowls
- Baking sheets
- Parchment Paper
- Pastry blender
- Measuring Cups
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 3/8 cup cold unsalted butter cut into tiny pieces

- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (overflowing)
- 1 1/2 cups diced peaches
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets, or line them with parchment paper. You will place four scones on each pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and baking powder. Using a pastry blender, work in the cold butter.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt or sour cream, and the vanilla extract.
- Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, making sure to incorporate all the dry ingredients.
- Add the peaches, stirring just until everything is combined.
- Drop the dough by the 1/3-cupful onto the prepared pans.
- Bake the scones for 22 minutes, until they’re light golden brown. Turn them halfway through baking. Remove them from the oven, and let them cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a rack to continue cooling.
- Serve warm, or at room temperature. Store at room temperature, well-wrapped, for several days; freeze for longer storage.
