Delish Peach Butter Swim Biscuits
I made these because I had too many peaches, a stubborn streak of optimism, and a biscuit recipe that thought it could swim. It turns out peaches + butter + slightly soggy biscuits = peak summer chaos on a plate, and honestly, that’s the point. This is not fancy food porn — it’s delicious, sticky, and ideal for when you want to impress neighbors without actually trying that hard.
I once tried to serve these at brunch and my husband, bless him, thought “swim” was a literal suggestion. He dunked an entire biscuit like a croissant into the peach butter and mistook the serving platter for a lifeguard stand. The kids applauded. The dog attempted a citizen’s arrest. I later found peach butter in the coat pocket of a guest who swears they don’t own a spoon. Moral: always guard the spread or make extra. Also, yes, this pan is too small. No, I won’t wash fewer dishes.
Why You’ll Love This Delish Peach Butter Swim Biscuits
– It looks fancy but is basically fruit + butter pretending to be couture.
– Sticky, buttery, peachy chaos that hides any culinary insecurity.
– Requires minimal flour-wrangling and maximal napkin use.
– Perfect for hot days when you don’t want to turn on the oven more than necessary (or when the AC is having its own meltdown).
Time-Saving Hacks
– Use store-bought biscuits if you believe in small lies that feed the soul.
– Swap fresh peach butter for a good jar of peach jam in a pinch — your guests won’t measure your crime.
– Line one baking sheet with foil and call it “less dishes.” I know, I know — self-respect takes a hit, but the dishwasher will thank you.
– If you’re rushed, halve the chill time and tell everyone it’s artisanal impatience.

Serving Ideas
– Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If anyone judges, they haven’t tasted warm peach butter with melting ice cream.
– Breakfast? Yes. Dessert? Also yes. Emergency mood stabilizer? Absolutely.
– Pair with sparkling water for the kids and something with bubbles and alcohol for adults (wine if the kids drove you nuts).
– Keep it simple: a plate, a napkin, and a firm stance on second helpings.
What to Serve It With
– Crisp arugula salad if you need to say the word “balanced.”
– Yogurt or crème fraîche to cut the sweetness.
– Strong coffee — the only adult beverage required before noon if you’re the one hosting.
Tips & Mistakes
– Biscuit dough too wet? Chill it. Patience is the boring hero of bakerdom.
– Peach butter running everywhere? That’s normal. Have napkins ready and accept the sticky life.
– Oven too full? Don’t crowd the pan unless you want steamed biscuits. Yes, you will cry.
– If the top browns too fast, tent with foil like a tiny, golden house of shame.
Storage Tips
Store it in the fridge… if there’s any left. Cold midnight leftovers? Sometimes better than fresh.
– Keep biscuits in an airtight container; they’ll soften but not sulk.
– Reheat gently in a toaster oven or skillet so they revive instead of implode.
Variations and Substitutions
Swap whatever you want—sugar ↔ honey, soy sauce ↔ tamari, or skip steps and call it “deconstructed.” It still counts.
– Add a splash of bourbon to the peach butter if you like your spreads with opinions.
– Swap peaches for plums or apricots when the peach gods are on vacation.
– Use dairy-free butter if you’re feeding people who enjoy dramatic dietary proclamations.
