STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425 F (220 C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2

Sift flour, 4 1/2 teaspoons sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 1/2 cup milk and mix into soft dough.

3

Divide dough into 4 equal parts and flatten each into a 2-inch disc. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon milk.

4

Mix remaining 1 teaspoon sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle the top of each biscuit with cinnamon sugar.

5

Bake biscuits in a preheated oven for approximately 12 minutes, until edges begin to brown. Cool on a wire rack.

6

Cook water, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and sliced peaches in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat once thickened. Cool.

7

Whip heavy cream in a bowl until stiff peaks form.

8

Layer each biscuit: bottom half, whipped cream dollop, 1/4 of peaches, more cream, and top biscuit. Serve immediately.
