Ingredients

2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar plus additional for topping
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter 1 stick
1 cup frozen peaches cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 cup peach Greek yogurt
1/4 cup whole milk
1 egg lightly beaten

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°. Line one large (the one I use is 11" X 17") or two small rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl whisk flour, sugar, baking soda and salt together until combined
Grate cold butter into the flour mixture using the large holes of the grater, stopping to toss the butter with the flour mixture a couple of times. Mix with your hands to work the butter into smaller pieces in the flour mixture. Add the frozen peaches and toss to combine.
In a small bowl whisk the Greek yogurt and milk together until well combined. Add to the flour using a fork to combine. The dough will be dry and shaggy. Knead and smoosh the dough together until it barely holds together. Turn onto a floured surface.
Pat dough into a 1 inch rectangle and cut into 8 pieces. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet. Brush top with egg and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake 18 - 22 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

Cold ingredients work best in this recipe so take the butter, yogurt and milk out of the refrigerator right before you are going to use them. I cut the frozen peaches into bite-sized pieces first and then return them to the freezer until I am ready to use them. The dough will be crumbly until you pat it out into the large rectangle.
