• 3/4 cup buttermilk
• 7 Tablespoons sugar
• Vegetable cooking spray
• 3 cups sliced Pearson Peaches (Fresh or Frozen)
• 1 and 1/2 cups fresh whipped cream

Directions:

In medium bowl, cut butter into flour with pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and 4 tablespoon sugar until all dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead 3 – 4 times.

Preheat oven to 425° F. Roll dough into 3/4” thickness; cut with a 2” biscuit cutter. Place pieces close together on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 13 – 15 minutes.

While shortcake is baking, place sliced peaches in medium bowl and stir in remaining 3 tablespoons sugar.

To serve, split shortcake in half and place peaches on the bottom half. Place the other half on top and spoon 2 tablespoons whipped cream.
