Scones are just an excuse to eat dessert for breakfast. It’s a better disguised excuse then chocolate muffins, I will grant you, but in the end, equally bad for you. I think I might sound like I’m complaining. I’m not complaining.
Cream scones are one of my favorite weekend morning accompaniments to coffee. The cream makes them so tender, and when they’re only lightly sweetened, like these, they’re perfect either topped with jam or baked with fresh fruit. A sweet biscuit, peaches, and cream – you can’t tell me that doesn’t sound like one heck of a dessert.
Lynne chose the cream scones for Tuesdays with Dorie, and she has the recipe posted. I left out the currants and added one peach, peeled, chopped, and frozen, to the dough after the liquids were partially mixed in.

I love peaches! I agree, scones are an excuse to eat dessert for breakfast.
Love the idea of peaches and cream scones!
Your variations sounds so good, wish I’d thought to try it. Next time!
These look wonderful! A perfect summer breakfast with some fresh fruit and yogurt, yum! Thanks, Chris
these look gorgeous! i really need to get into baking yet, and this seems like a great way to start :-).
Peaches and cream. What a great combination. Have to try them.
Peaches and cream is a wonderful combination- I’d love those scones for breakfast or any time of day! 🙂
peaches and cream scones?? i so want one…for breakfast or dessert.
I just returned from a month in England and am now *addicted* to scones and thick cream and jam. Your post came at the perfect time; I’m going to try these this week.
I’m kind of addicted to scones – peaches & cream is brilliant! I need to make these next.
