Peach Butter Swim Biscuits with Vanilla Glaze are tender, sweet Southern biscuits baked in melted butter with a fruity peach butter infusion, topped with a simple vanilla glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Biscuits:
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ cups buttermilk
  • ½ cup melted unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup peach butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Vanilla Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
  2. Pour melted butter into an 8×8-inch baking dish, ensuring the bottom is fully coated.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together self-rising flour and sugar.
  4. Stir in buttermilk, peach butter, and vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough will be wet and sticky.
  5. Pour the dough directly into the butter-filled dish and spread evenly with a spatula. The butter will “swim” around the edges.
  6. Score the top into nine squares with a knife to help separate the biscuits after baking.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown and crisp on top.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  9. While the biscuits cool, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl for the glaze. Add more milk a few drops at a time if a thinner consistency is needed.
  10. Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm biscuits before serving.

Notes

  • Self-rising flour helps create light and fluffy biscuits.
  • Peach butter can be homemade or store-bought; it adds natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Substitute strawberry butter or apple butter for different fruit flavors.
  • Using real butter is essential for the authentic melt-in-your-mouth flavor.
  • Do not overmix the dough to ensure tender biscuits.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven before serving.
  • For longer storage, wrap biscuits individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw and warm before glazing.
