Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 6 Tablespoons cold butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup sour cream or vanilla yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup diced fresh canned or frozen peaches
  • coarse sparkling sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, nutmeg, and baking powder.
  • Cut the butter into small pieces. Using a pastry blender cut the butter into the dry ingredients.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt or sour cream, almond extract and heavy whipping cream.
  • Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
  • Add the peaches, stirring just until everything is combined. This is a wet, sticky dough.
  • Drop the dough by the 1/4-cupful onto the prepared pan; a muffin scoop works well here.
  • Sprinkle with the coarse sparkling sugar, if desired.
  • Bake scones for 20-25 minutes, until they're light golden brown. 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 temp., well wrapped, for several days.
