Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Peel peaches (or nectarines).
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  3. Stir together remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, both flours, ground cardamom, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl.
  4. Add butter and using a pastry blender to break up the butter into pea-size chunks. Stir in crystallized ginger.
  5. Beat egg with vanilla and 1/2 cup buttermilk. Add to dry ingredients and stir with a fork just until moistened. If it seems too dry, add 1–2 tablespoons additional buttermilk. Texture will be shaggy and barely moist.
  6. Turn dough out onto a counter lightly dusted with flour (I floured my hands, too.). Knead a few times; then roll or pat dough into a circle about 3/4-inch thick.
  7. Using a glass or biscuit cutter, cut out six 2-inch circles; gather remains, shape into a disk, and cut out remaining biscuits. Place close together on a baking sheet and bake until golden, 12–18 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes.
  9. Whip cream until it holds soft peaks. Add sweetener to taste and stir in almond extract.
  10. To serve, cut biscuits.
  11. Spoon fruit and juices (if any) over bottom half, add a dollop of cream, and cover with top biscuit.
  12. I garnished the dessert with a light sprinkle of raw sugar for presentation.
  13. Yield is estimated.
