Peach And Blueberry Shortcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In an 8-inch (20cm) square parchment paper-lined baking dish, arrange the biscuits side by side to cover the bottom of the dish, forming a sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
• Slice the peaches, discarding the pits.
• Destem and pit the cherries.
• In a large skillet, combine peaches, cherries, blueberries, ½ cup (125 grams) of the sugar, water, and lemon juice. Heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
• In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with a whisk or electric mixer until frothy. Add remaining ¼ cup (62 grams) of sugar. Continue to beat until the whipped cream forms soft peaks.
• Remove the sheet of biscuits from the dish. Slice in half lengthwise, like a bagel.
• Spoon the fruit mixture onto the bottom half of the biscuits, reserving some of the liquid.
• Replace the top half of the biscuits. Carefully separate into individual portions (the syrup will still be quite warm!)
• Spoon whipped cream over the top and drizzle with reserved fruit syrup.
• Enjoy!
