2cupspeaches, chopped
Glaze Ingredients:

2 to 3tablespoonsheavy whipping cream
Instructions
Sift 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium mixing bowl.
Cut cold 3/4 cup butter into small chunks (½ tablespoon-size pieces) and add to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter is broken down into pea-size pieces.
Add 1 cup buttermilk and 1 teaspoon almond extract and stir to combine into a rough mixture. Add the chopped 2 cups peaches into the scone mixture and gently stir in without squishing the peaches. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Form each dough half into a circle and pat out until it is no more than ¾” thick.
Score the dough lightly into wedges and lift carefully into the greased basket of the air fryer. Cook in the air fryer at 350°F for 15 minutes or until the scone is cooked all the way through.
Whisk together the 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 teaspoon almond extract and 2 to 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream, adjusting the amount of cream until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle glaze over scones and allow to set.
