These are seriously the best scones ever!  I might even like them better the pumpkin ones.  Kylan was over and had one - he even liked them.

2 cups plus 2 T flour

• ⅓ cup brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, cubed and cold
• 1 egg
• ¼ cup heavy whipping cream, plus more for brushing
• ¼ cup sour cream
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup fresh peaches, diced

Vanilla Glaze

• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
• 1-3 Tbsp heavy whipping cream

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, mix together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Once combined, cut in the butter with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Whisk together heavy cream, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
4. Stir in the peaches, and mix until just combined.
5. On a well-floured surface, turn out the scone dough and pat into a small disk that's about a ½" thick. Cut into 6-8 slices, and transfer to the baking sheet. Brush each scone with just a bit of heavy cream.
6. Bake for 16-18 minutes, or just until golden brown. Allow to cool.

Glaze

1. Whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 Tbsp of heavy cream. If the glaze is too thick, continue adding in heavy cream, one 1 Tbsp at a time, until it has reached the desired consistency. Pour over warm scones and enjoy!
