    List of Ingredients




    2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/3 cup vanilla yogurt
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    1 cup diced peaches (about one good-sized peach)
    2 tablespoons melted butter
    2 tablespoons granulated sugar

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

    In a large bowl, sift the flour, salt, sugar, nutmeg, and baking powder together. Work the butter into the dry ingredients, using your fingertips or a fork or pastry blender.

    Mix the eggs, yogurt, and almond extract. Stir this into the dry ingredients. Add the peaches and stir just until mixed. This is a very sticky dough.

    Liberally flour the counter and your hands. Put the dough on the counter and pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into 10 triangular scones.

    Place scones on a well-greased cookie sheet. Brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with the sugar.

    Bake for 20 minutes, or until nicely browned and a cake tester inserted into a scone comes out dry.

    Makes 10 scones
