Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
- Gently fold in the diced nectarines, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, indicating that they are ready to flip, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm, generously drizzled with maple syrup.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider sprinkling some cinnamon or nutmeg into the batter.
- You can substitute nectarines with peaches or plums for a different fruity twist.
- To make these pancakes even fluffier, let the batter rest for about 5 minutes before cooking.
