Ingredients
PEACHES & CREAM
- 4 ripe organic peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup organic heavy whipping cream, chilled (or 1 cup plain greek yogurt), see note*
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
OATCAKES
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, see note*
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Zest of 1 lime
- 8 tablespoons butter, cold, cut into pieces, see note*
- 1 1/4 cups + 2 tablespoons milk, see note*
- 1 tablespoon sugar plus 1 teaspoon ginger, mixed, set aside
Instructions
PEACHES & CREAM
- Mix together peaches, lime juice, and sugar and set aside.
- Whisk cream until it begins to thicken, add sugar.
- Continue until soft peaks form, gently whisk in vanilla (if using yogurt just whisk in sugar and vanilla).
- Set aside in refrigerator. When ready to serve if cream has fallen, whisk a few times until the soft peaks return.
OATCAKES
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, and salt, until combined.
- Add lime zest and butter. Cut butter into the flour until incorporated and has the consistency of coarse meal by rubbing with fingers, pulsing with a food processor, or cutting with pastry knives or forks.
- Add 1 1/4 cups of milk and gently stir until just mixed.
- Using a spoon, drop dough, about 2 tablespoons onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper; should have 12 cakes.
- Brush remaining 2 tablespoons of milk on top of biscuits, sprinkle generously with ginger-sugar mix.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cool.
Notes
*NOTE: Can use gluten-free or dairy-free alternatives here.
To serve, cut biscuits in half horizontally. Place bottom half on serving plate, spoon on peaches with their liquid, then a dollop of cream, and gently place other half of biscuit on top.
