Ingredients
Scale
For the Biscuits:
- 2 cups (250g) self-rising flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups (360ml) buttermilk
- ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup (120g) peach butter (homemade or store-bought)
For the Vanilla Glaze:
- 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Topping:
- Extra peach butter drizzle or fresh peach slices for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set to 450°F (230°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish generously with butter.
- Melt the butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt ½ cup butter and pour it into the baking dish.
- Mix the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together self-rising flour and sugar. Add buttermilk and peach butter, stirring gently until just combined.
- Add to the dish: Pour the batter over the melted butter and spread evenly. Do not stir — let the butter bubble up naturally.
- Bake: Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and edges are crisp.
- Cool and glaze: Let the biscuits cool slightly, then whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the glaze. Drizzle over warm biscuits before serving.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter — stir just until combined for tender biscuits.
- Use real butter for authentic flavor and texture.
- Add glaze while biscuits are still warm so it melts slightly and seeps into the crumb.
- Substitute peach butter with strawberry or apple butter for variations.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or refrigerate up to 5 days.
