Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, beaten egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix as this can make the pancakes tough.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
- Scoop 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then carefully flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the pancakes are golden brown.
- Repeat the process until all batter is used, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the fluffy peach pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness.
Tips
- For an added twist, try using a mix of stone fruits like nectarines or plums along with the peaches.
- Feel free to add a handful of chopped nuts or a sprinkle of granola to the batter for added texture.
- If you prefer a lighter pancake, substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
