(We'll use it later). 3. Preheat oven to 425 ยบ. 4. Place flour, cornmeal, baking powder salt & 3 tablespoons of sugar in food processor. Pulse to combine. 5. Add butter and pulse to a coarse meal texture. 6. With machine running, quickly pour in 1 cup cream. Stop mixing when dough starts to come together. Don't overwork! 7. Place dough on a floured work surface & bring it together with your hands. Shape into a circle 1 1/4 inches thick. Cut into 8 wedges. 8. Place the scones on a greased baking sheet. Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon of cream & sprinkle with remaining sugar. 9. Bake 15 minutes until set & light golden brown. 10. Remove from oven & cool. 11. Toss the peaches in a bowl with 3 tablespoons cooled simple syrup & the mint leaves. (Store remaining syrup in the fridge for later use). 12. Let peaches sit for 10 minutes then puree 1/4 of the mixture & add back. 13. To serve, split scones in half & place on plates. Divide peaches and pour over. Replace scone tops. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
