Fresh Peach and Gingercream Shortcakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Cut the fresh peaches into slices and toss with sugar and lemon juice. Let them sit for 15 minutes to macerate.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the ginger.
-
Add the whipping cream and stir until the dough comes together.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently. Pat or roll out the dough into a 1/2-inch thickness.
-
Use a biscuit cutter to cut out shortcakes from the dough and place them on a baking sheet.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
-
In the meantime, prepare the gingercream by whipping the whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
-
Once the shortcakes have cooled, slice them in half horizontally.
-
Place a spoonful of macerated peaches on the bottom half of each shortcake. Top with a dollop of gingercream and cover with the top half of the shortcake.
-
Serve and enjoy!
