What could be better for breakfast than these delicious Browned Butter Peach Scones, loaded with fresh peaches and warm from your oven.
How to make Brown Butter Peach Scones
Hi everyone, I’m Laura from Tutti Dolci – All Sweets! As the name suggests, I’m passionate about desserts and all things baking. My unofficial motto is “Life is short. Eat dessert first!”
When Chef Dennis asked if he could talk me into guest posting, I didn’t have to think twice! Like many of you, I appreciate his support of the food blogging community and his approachable, delicious recipes. His posts teach me something new, make me laugh, or encourage me to head to the kitchen.
As I considered what recipe to share with you, I remembered a recent pastry from our host: scones with blueberries and cream. When I’m craving a treat for breakfast, I always pick a scone, so today I’m sharing brown butter-peach scones.
Peaches are one of my favorite summer fruits, and now that the season is upon us, I’m guilty of buying pounds at a time. A new favorite way to enjoy them is baked into scones. I love the nutty character that brown butter adds to baked goods, and it certainly didn’t let me down this time either!
Moist and light with a crisp golden topping, these scones make a scrumptious breakfast or afternoon snack. I enjoy them just as they are, however, I’d never pass up a side of honey-butter or Mascarpone!
Chef Dennis, thanks so much for including me in your guest post series!

Hi Chef Dennis,
I made them yesterday and they were awesome. One of the reviews said it was too wet so I just added the wet ingredients as needed. They were moist and delicious. I was wondering if you can add ricotta and a very small slice of peach on top to make it more attractive.
Thanks again for that great recipe, I will certainly use it for my guests.
Chef Dennis Littley says
Ricotta and peaches would be a nice way to serve this dish. Also Mascarpone might be a little smoother than ricotta.
Tia says
These were very yummy. The only thing was that the dough was way too wet. Either more flour or less buttermilk will be for the next time.
Chris at Hye Thyme Cafe says
I love scones. Even my nephews ask me for them all the time. This sounds like a great alternative to my regular roundup. I’ll be pinning this one for future reference for sure! 🙂
Mona says
This recipe sounds amazing….I am heading towards a family beach vacation and wonder if these would freeze well ? I can’t wait to wake up and bake these ! Also heading over to your blog immediately.
Chef D says
hi Mona
I have frozen scones and it does work with them. The only problem you might experience is they may require a few minutes in the oven to crisp them back up. They get a little soft from freezing.
Michelle says
These look awesome! I’m now double subscribed, so that even without Buzz, I won’t miss a post!
