Peach-Filled Buttermilk Breakfast Biscuits

Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg, beaten

For the Peach Filling:

- 2 large peaches, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and powdered sugar.

3. Incorporate Fats:
- Cut in the shortening and unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture forms pea-sized crumbles.

4. Add Wet Ingredients:
- Stir in the buttermilk and beaten egg, mixing just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

5. Roll Out the Dough:
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it a few times to bring it together, then roll it out to about 1/2-inch thickness.

6. Cut the Biscuits:
- Use a round biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out biscuit shapes.

7. Prepare the Peach Filling:
- In a small bowl, combine the diced peaches.

8. Fill the Biscuits:
- Place a small spoonful of the peach filling onto the center of half the biscuit rounds. Top each with another biscuit round and gently press the edges to seal.

9. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
- Place the filled biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave a small gap between each biscuit.

10. Brush with Milk and Butter:
- Mix the milk and melted butter together. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the mixture to ensure a golden brown finish.

11. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

12. Cool and Serve:
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
