SOUTHERN PEACH SHORTCAKE



Southern Peach Shortcake image

My mom was a great Southern scratch cook. She believed a shortcake was basically a lightly sweetened biscuit, made to hold up mounds of beautiful, fresh fruit. I have tried to recreate her recipe, and I think this recipe is pretty close! Mom's shortcake was best when made about an hour before serving, to allow all those juices to soak into the shortcake. It's best when eaten fresh, in one sitting, but if you happen to have any leftovers, you can store them in the refrigerator. Garnish with sweetened whipped cream if desired.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup cold, unsalted butter
⅔ cup milk
8 ripe peaches, peeled and pitted
3 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, divided
½ cup white sugar, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9-inch cast iron skillet and set aside. Reserve remaining butter.
  • Combine flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in 1/2 cup cold butter with a pastry knife until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Pour in milk and stir just until the dough starts to come together.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a ball. Divide ball in half and lightly knead each half. Gently roll each half into a 9-inch circle.
  • Place 1 dough circle into the prepared skillet, and dot with reserved butter. Place second dough circle on top of the butter pieces, and place the skillet in the center of the preheated oven.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top is lightly browned, 22 to 25 minutes.
  • While the shortcake is baking, prepare peaches. Slice 1 peach, toss with 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and set aside. Chop the remaining peaches, yielding about 4 cups, and toss with remaining lemon juice.
  • Turn shortcake out onto a rack to slightly cool, about 5 minutes. Slice in half crosswise, using the edge of the second layer as a guide. Place bottom half on a serving plate, cut side up.
  • Sprinkle 1/4 cup white sugar on a plate and lightly mash 2 cups of peaches into the sugar. Spread out mashed peaches and sugar over the shortcake layer on the serving plate. Cover mashed peaches with the second shortcake layer, cut side up.
  • Toss remaining chopped peaches with remaining sugar and distribute on top of the second layer. Toss peach slices in any remaining juice, and place in a decorative pattern on top of the shortcake.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect biscuit, use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Handle the biscuit dough as little as possible, and avoid overworking it, as this will result in tough biscuits.
  • When rolling out the biscuit dough, use a light touch and avoid pressing down too hard, as this will also result in tough biscuits.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
  • For the freshest flavor, use ripe, in-season peaches.
  • If you don't have fresh peaches, you can use frozen or canned peaches.
  • To make the ginger cream, use freshly grated ginger for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead.
  • Serve the shortcakes immediately, while the biscuits are still warm and the ginger cream is cold.

Conclusion:

These fresh peach and ginger cream shortcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for summer. The biscuits are light and fluffy, the peaches are sweet and juicy, and the ginger cream is a perfect complement to the other flavors. This dessert is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
