Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 400°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set
aside. In a large bowl combine flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and
sugar; mix well to combine. Cut the butter into small cubes then work it into
the mixture (using your fingers, two forks, or a pastry cutter) until lit
resembles a coarse meal. In a small bowl whisk together the egg, milk, and
cream. Add to flour/butter mixture and use a fork to stir everything together
until just moistened. Empty the loose dough out onto a clean, lightly floured
work surface and gently knead it into a workable texture. About 5 or 6 kneads
should bring it together. Gently pat the dough until it's evenly 1 and 1/2
inches thick. Use a 3" biscuit cutter to cut out 4 rounds. Carefully transfer
biscuits to the prepared sheet, placing them 2" apart. Lightly brush the top of
each biscuit with cream. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow
biscuits to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet.
2 Heat grill to medium-high heat. Gently brush the peach wedges with a little
canola oil and place them on the grill for 4 minutes; gently flip the peaches
over and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until grill marks appear and the
peaches have begun to caramelize. Carefully remove from the grill and set aside
until needed.
3 In a large bowl using a handheld mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted
with the whisk attachment, beat together the heavy cream and confectioners'
sugar until soft peaks are formed. Set aside - or refrigerate - until needed.
4 Slice the biscuits in half and layer with whipped cream, grilled peach slices,
and mixed berries. Garnish with mint springs, if desired. Serve at once!
